The nose is generous with fresh layers of passionfruit, citrus and flowering herb. The sweet fruit characters on the palate and fresh acidity combine to create an expressive and attractive Sauvignon Blanc.

Vintage 2022 was an exciting classic Marlborough harvest. A warm Spring secured good fruit set throughout the region. Some challenging weather in February was rewarded with clear warm days throughout harvest. The cool crisp nights and warm days in March retainedvibrant acidity while allowing flavours to develop fully. A slow and steady ripening resulted in beautifully intense and structured wines. The resulting wine is showing the wonderful hallmarks that our Marlborough vineyards are known for – highly concentrated fruit flavours, with underlying purity and minerality.

Individual parcels of Sauvignon Blanc were selected for this wine from our Awatere and Wairau Valley vineyards. The parcels were harvested and fermented separately, using selected yeast strains for Sauvignon Blanc to enhance varietal character. A long, cool fermentation took place over three weeks, with the parcels then being blended and stabilised, prior to bottling.

Food Pairing: Beautiful with fresh seafood and salads.
