Description
- Dry style
- Summer fruits
- Bright blossom
- Refreshing
On the nose a bouquet of bright blossom is underpinned by fresh summer fruits. The feel across the palate is poised, succulent, bracing and sophisticated. This sauvignon exudes restraint. It is refreshing and textural, alluring and moreish.
Winemaker Todd Stevens pursues complex aromatics while remaining true to varietal characterisitics. As with the rest of the Neudorf portfolio textual interest is a major component. In the winery we use 100% wild ferment, and this along with 20% barrel fermentation moderates the high tone nature of the variety.
Their Sauvignon is grown on the alluvial gravels down on the Waimea Plains, from Marama Vineyard, owned by Brett and Anna Woodwiss rather than the clay gravels of the Moutere Hills, home to their Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Riesling, Pinot Gris and Albariño.
Neudorf Sauvignon Blanc is a unique take on New Zealand's most planted variety.
This will be remembered as an extreme season, not only in terms of temperature and rainfall (lack of) but with events such as forest fires and water shortages. Strangely, fruit composition was excellent, not over ripe as one might expect, and as result we see wines that have a density but also a refinement.
100% Sauvignon Blanc.
