Description

  • Dry style
  • Lemon-creme
  • Fine acidity
  • Lengthy finish

Herb and Citrus up front on the nose, giving way to lemon-creme on the palate. Fine acidity and a bit of phenolic weight provide length and depth to the finish.

A true cross section of the Wairau plains, from the deep loams of the lower Wairau, Dillons point and the silty gravels of Rapaura to the clays of Renwick and the Southern Valleys, Acorn covers the range of terroir of the best of the Wairau Valley. 

Harvested cold, the fruit was lightly pressed in multiple parcels, allowing the individual blocks to be fermented in small format, so all of the winemaking choices could be tailored to the individual character of the fruit. Once blended the wine has been kept on light fermentation lees and is being stirred weekly to continue developing palate complexity.

The cooperative began in 2012 with a small group of like-minded growers wanting to take more control over their end product. Since then the cooperative has grown to over 80 members and nearly 800 hectares all across the subregions in Marlborough.

All vineyards and the Winery are all Sustainable Winegrowing New Zealand (SWNZ) accredited. The cooperative and the winery are SEDEX accredited, and the Winery has BRCS accreditation.
