The 2019 growing season in Marlborough was a hot and dry one. We received small amounts of rain around the end of December, but then no further rain until late February. These rain events had very little impact on soil moisture levels, but helped to replenish our rivers, setting us up nicely to see us through to harvest. Vintage started in mid-March and it provided us with incredibly stable weather. This meant we could pick blocks at their optimum ripeness. The Sauvignon Blanc produced from this vintage has concentrated fruit flavours, with a vibrant pure palate and an elegant fresh finish.
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 four
weeks, with the parcels then being blended and stabilised, prior to bottling.
International Wine & Spirit Competition - "“Mellow guava and grapefruit sweet-and-sour nose, with moderate acidity. This is classical, with some zippiness and good balance”.
