Pale green colour in the glass. Aromas of vibrant grapefruit, nectarine and tropical fruits. A fresh and lively palate showing layers of tropical passionfruit and citrus. A fine note of minerality leads to a clean and elegant finish.

The Sauvignon Blanc fruit was harvested from Delta vineyard sites around the Marlborough region. These vineyards experienced long hot summer days, contributing to weighty, quality fruit.

The 2023 vintage started with warm spring weather resulting in early flowering within our Delta vineyards. The growing season had higher levels of rain that cleared up early April, at this time the wind picked up, drying the fruit and leaving behind disease free grapes with intense tropical flavours. Ripening steadily throughout the growing period, the fruit was continually monitored by Heather until a balance of flavour, acidity and physiological ripeness was reached.

During a cool evening, the vineyard was machine harvested and the grapes were quickly transported to the winery where they were destemmed and pressed. After settling, the juice was fermented at cool temperatures and racked off lees quickly to retain the vibrant fruit flavours and freshness of this Sparkling Sauvignon Blanc. After final blending, the was was then gently carbonated and bottled.

Food Pairing: An ideal match on it's own or with fresh shellfish.
