Description
"Concentrated sauvignon blanc with pure passionfruit, mineral, lemongrass and green capsicum flavours. A powerful wine that's perfectly underpinned by assertive, juicy acidity that helps drive a lengthy finish" Bob Campbell, Master Wine, Real Reviews, Oct 2016
This mystery sauvignon blanc is pale straw with a slight green hue in the glass with an aromatic nose of white currant and fragrant tropical fruit with a hint of cut grass. Luscious ripe grapefruit and green guava flavours. The palate is chalky in texture and has a long lingering finish.
The fruit was sourced from a single vineyard on the fertile, free-draining soils of the lower Wairau Valley. The site was previously part of the Wairau flood plain, which built up the deep free-draining soils. The fruit was carefully monitored during ripening and harvested in the cool of the evening at maximum flavour maturity and physiological ripeness.
The juice was pressed off immediately following harvesting to minimize skin contact and juice deterioration. After settling, the juice was fermented using a selected yeast strain in stainless steel at cool temperatures to retain fruit flavour and freshness.
Food Pairing: Well matched with smoked salmon and steamed green-lipped mussels.
