Kim Crawford is one of New Zealand’s most celebrated wine brands, synonymous with the bright, zesty Sauvignon Blanc that put Marlborough on the world map. “Illuminate” is their answer to a growing demand for lower-alcohol options that don’t compromise on flavor — a wine that delivers the full Kim Crawford Marlborough experience at just 7% ABV and 70 calories per serving.

Grapes are individually harvested from vineyard blocks across Marlborough’s subregions, destemmed in the field, and gently pressed and fermented block by block to capture the character of each parcel. A portion of the base wine then undergoes “Spinning Cone” technology — a low-vacuum distillation process that removes alcohol without impacting aroma — before being blended back to achieve the final 7% ABV. The result is pale yellow in the glass, with lifted aromatics of passionfruit, guava, lime, mango, and gardenia. Elegant yet full-flavored, with crisp acidity and a refreshing herbal and citrus finish. Drink now or within one to three years.

“Crisp and tart, with notes of lime, mango, and gardenia. It settles gracefully on the palate thanks to bright acidity and a squeeze of grapefruit.”
