Vinification
Overlooking the ocean in dry and windswept Blind River, we grow our grapes in one of the harshest environments in Marlborough. Our grapes enjoy the region’s long sunshine hours, while the ocean breeze keeps things cooler and drier. Grapes from our family-owned vineyard were harvested, before being gently pressed and fermented using a variety of yeast strains, in stainless steel tanks. After fermentation, the individual wines were tasted, then the top parcels from our Blind River vineyard are blended into the Summerhouse Sauvignon Blanc.
