"A wonderful expression of the variety, showing kiwifruit, rockmelon, kaffir lime and lemon zest aromas, leading to a concentrated palate offering terrific fruit power and persistency. Pristine and packed with delicious flavours. At its best: now to 2026" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jul 2022

The 2022 Aotea by the Seifried family Nelson Sauvignon Blanc is from a parcel of fruit which looked simply sensational even before it was off the vine. Their Queen Victoria Sauvignon Blanc block really shines with intense varietal flavours. Punchy citrus, fragrant basil and a hint of fresh hops come through with lovely lingering flavours and acidity.

Their Queen Victoria Vineyard is located in the Motueka area in the heart of a region known for its apple orchards, kiwifruit and hops. Our grapes are grown on very stoney free draining soils giving lovely fruit clarity and varietal intensity.

Aromatic and fresh Sauvignon Blanc flavours were encouraged prior to vintage through careful canopy management. The fruit was de-stemmed and pressed immediately after harvest and a cool fermentation was initiated in stainlesssteel tanks to retain the clean, fresh aromatic fruit characters.
