The South Island of New Zealand is home to great wine producing regions.Long, sun filled growing seasons and cool nights combine to produce thevibrant flavours. South Island Sauvignon Blanc is zesty and vibrant withtropical fruit, kaffir lime, lemongrass and herb aromas flowing onto thepalate with generous fruit, juicy acidity and a fresh, dry finish.

The 2022 season was not without challenges with significant rain events leading into harvest. Careful fruit selection was required from two sections of organically grown vines around the winery (90%) and Andalane vineyard further down Conder Bend Road a mere 500m from the estate. Soils here are of the old riverbed type with fist sized stones composed of greywacke (a hard, dark type of sandstone streaked with quartz and feldspar), mixed alluvial gravels and silt. Consequently, vine canopies lack vigour, the fruiting zone is more exposed to the elements and yields are naturally lower. These factors produce an atypical style of Sauvignon Blanc.

Aromatics of red apple, nectarine and flinty savoury elements. Intense, richly textured and supple palate with elements of stone fruit and ginger whilst finishing with vivid quartz like persistence.

Aromatics are reminiscent of mandarin pith, wet stone and bees wax. Vibrant, intense, focused palate with orange, and stone fruit flavours held together by good line of juicy acidity and elegant texture.

This Organic Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc has wonderful aromas of passionfruit, guava, grapefruit, lemon, and elderflower. On the palate, tropical fruit flavours give way to subtle citrus notes of lemon and lime. This wine is generous and complex, with a bright crispness supporting its long finish.
