"It’s fabulously aromatic on the nose showing green rockmelon, feijoa, kiwifruit and jasmine aromas, followed by an intensely flavoursome palate delivering fine chalky texture and bright acidity. Gorgeously composed and styled, making it immensely appealing. At its best: now to 2026" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Oct 2022
Fabulously aromatic on the nose showing green rockmelon, feijoa, kiwifruit and jasmine, followed by an intensely flavoursome palate offering excellent fruit power and persistency. It’s intense and concentrated with classical varietal characters that linger with loads of delectable flavours.
Sur Lie ageing is the process of allowing this wine to sit on the lees (left over dead yeast cells) in order to extract flavours and enrich the palate. Wines aged on their lees tend to be creamier, richer, fuller-bodied with greater depth and complexity.
Harvested in the cool of the morning & softly pressed. Fermented slowly in stainless steel tanks at cool temperatures to preserve the freshness and zing of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. Lees aging (6 months) prior to bottling has developed mid-palate weight adding to the wine’s intense fruit characters.
