SAUVIGNON BLANC 2024

Preserved citrus, elderflower, subtle tropical fruit and a touch of Jalapeño create enticing aromatics. Beautiful intensity of flavour from start to finish, with crisp and juicy minerality threaded together with a fine line of texture.

After the hard work was done in the vineyard this season, the fine weather in March allowed us to pick excellent fruit. Individual vineyards and blocks were kept as separate as possible in the winery. The juice was split quickly from the skins and lightly clarified before a low-and-slow fermentation.

Vintage

A truly remarkable growing season that was marked by dry, warm weather. A significant late season frost and a cooler start to flowering in December created low yields across much of the region. As an average our estate and grower blocks were 25-30% down on average, with a surprising number of Sauvignon vineyards yielding single digits. Pristinely clean fruit on the vine and smaller than usual bunches had us quietly brimming with excitement. With no disease pressure, and the driest summer in Marlborough for over 90 years harvest started on the 13th of March and was more of a sprint than a marathon, with the last block coming in on the 30th of March. The earliest and quickest harvest in many years.
