Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc

Description

Winemaking

Sauvignon Blanc grapes from Dillions Point, east of Blenheim, is a sub-region renowned for producing striking, and award-winning Sauvignon Blanc.

Winemaking was focused on capturing the powerful aromas and flavours Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is famous for. The fruit was destemmed and gently pressed with the clarified juice fermented at cool temperatures in stainless steel tanks over several weeks. A small amount of residual sweetness was retained to balance the acidity and the wine bottled early to preserve its youthful exuberance and energy.

The Wine

Pink grapefruit, passionfruit, pineapple, and guava aromas leap from the glass, leading to a plate that explodes with tangy tropical fruit and citrus flavours. Outstanding depth of flavour is balanced by mouth-watering acidity resulting in a juicy, succulent finish that lingers long after you swallow. A classic Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc bursting with flavour that can be enjoyed on its own or partnered Asian-inspired dishes. Try it with a crispy skin pork red curry. Drink while young and fresh!
