Sacred Hill Sauvignon Blanc 2020

This Sauvignon Blanc reflects our roots, always looking to the land first to craft world-class wines that taste like adventure feels. From our vineyards in Marlborough, this quality wine is made to share.

This wine displays classic Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc aromas of lime, passionfruit, mango, nettle and jasmine with a hint of minerality. The vibrant palate offers excellent texture with a zesty zing leaving persistent flavours of lime, nettle and flint.

Marlborough experienced a classic cool climate growing season leading into the 2020 harvest. A mild winter merged gently into an early spring, followed by a cooler start to summer. Our Sauvignon Blanc lapped up the sunshine in the second half of the summer, which hit record temperatures, resulting in superb ripening conditions.

Grapes harvested in the cool of the night were gently pressed and the juice clarified quickly to retain maximum aromatic expression. Ferment was undertaken at cool temperatures over several weeks using select strains of yeast to fully capture the intensity of this vibrant Sauvignon Blanc. The wine received minimal handling prior to blending, filtration and bottling.
