Invivo’s New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc cracks Wine Spectator’s global Top 10 Wine Values of 2025 – Innovative New Zealand winery Invivo is celebrating after its Invivo X, SJP Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc was named one of Wine Spectator’s Top 10 Wine Values of 2025, a standout moment for the New Zealand wine industry on a major global stage.
With the world’s leading wine authority, Wine Spectator, tasting tens of thousands of wines each year, the Top 10 list represents a hand-picked selection of wines recognised for delivering exceptional quality and value – and Invivo X, SJP Sauvignon Blanc was the only New Zealand wine to feature in the 2025 selection.
Created in partnership between Invivo and Sarah Jessica Parker, Invivo X, SJP has become known for its modern style and consistent quality since launching in 2019. Each new vintage of the Sauvignon Blanc – aswell as the Rosé and Pinot Noir in the collection – is personally blended by Sarah Jessica Parker alongside Invivo founders and winemakers Tim Lightbourne and Rob Cameron, with Parker taking an active, hands-on role across the winemaking and creative direction of the brand.
Invivo X, SJP Sauvignon Blanc aims to offer a more textural style to the category – a combination of late harvesting, a small amount of skin contact, and some oak influence in the final stages of winemaking all contribute to its stylish flavour profile.
“This recognition means a huge amount to all of us at Invivo,” said Rachael Everitt, Chief Marketing Officer at Invivo. “Wine Spectator is one of the most respected global voices in wine, so being included in their Top 10 Wine Values of 2025 is a real honour. We’re grateful to everyone around the world who has enjoyed a glass with us. It’s also a good reminder that New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc belongs on the world stage alongside the global greats – and that we continue to over-deliver on quality for the value. We’re proud of the Invivo X, SJP journey so far, and we’re looking forward to launching some exciting new wines this year.”
Since launch, every new vintage across the range has received 90+ point scores by some the world’s leading wine authorities, reinforcing the brand’s focus on quality, taste and approachability. The quality goes hand-in-hand with Invivo X, SJP’s commercial success, especially in the USA – with Invivo X, SJP sales increasing by 20% in the second half of 2025.*
