Seresin Estate Sauvignon Blanc 2017
Description
Subtle on the nose with warm notes of ripe yellow stone-fruit, soft passionfruit and chalky-mineral complexity. The palate is layered and finely textured, with ripe gooseberry, tropical and citrus notes, framed by mouthwatering acidity, which creates a persistent finish.
2017 was a memorable and challenging vintage. A wonderful warm start to the growing season, with good soil moisture helped the vines to grow well. Colder temperatures during flowering resulted in lower yields and smaller bunches. The harvest itself was fast and furious, one of the most compact the winery has ever experienced, with challenging rain events just before and near the end of harvest. The resulting wine has strong natural acidity and intense fruit concentration from the cooler season.
Certified organic fruit was hand-picked primarily from the Noa vineyard, with a small parcel from the Raupo vineyard. The Noa vineyards upper terrace is a mixture of Renwick and Broadbridge soils, where as Raupo has rich clay bases soil on north facing slopes.
This unique Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is comprised of 18 different parcels of Sauvignon Blanc and two of Sémillon, each picked from different vineyard blocks, which were then gently whole bunch pressed and fermented separately. The wine was naturally fermented using wild yeast, and 20% of the total blend was fermented in old French oak barriques to give complexity and texture. After nine months each parcel was tasted and selected for blending, to create a well-rounded and complex wine.
