Vineyard

Parcels are hand selected from heavy soil vineyards in the Awatere Valley, a premium sub-region in Marlborough. Awatere Valley is slightly cooler, drier, windier with higher elevation and is known for great minerality and texture.

Vinification

To create a Sauvignon Blanc with intense flavour and texture, our winemakers gently press off the must prior to cold settling. Cool fermentation using selected yeasts captured aromatics and flavour. Time on fine lees allowed the wine to build further complexity prior to bottling.

Was malolactic fermentation used: no
Was high-solid fermentation used: no
