Description

Intense aromatics of passionfruit, tropical fruit and background fennel notes lead into a flavoursome, succulent palate in this dry styled wine. A classic Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc that is fresh, pure and long on the palate reflecting premium vineyard sites within the Wairau Valley.

Fruit for this wine was sourced from two premium Wairau Valley vineyards in the Waihopai Valley (85%) and the Central Wairau Valley. These sites show a range of soil types from alluvial over a papa pan, silt over gravels and stony gravels. Meticulous attention to vine and soil health, yield control and vine balance have contributed to optimum flavour and fruit condition at the time of harvest. This classic Wairau Valley Sauvignon Blanc from the 2018 growing season has produced a wine with great purity, concentration and definition.

The Sauvignon Blanc winemaking philosophy at Vidal Estate is to produce wines that reflect where they are from and the season they were grown in, in a style that is balanced, defined and flavoursome. Juice from gently pressed grapes was cool fermented to retain purity, flavour and aromatics. Lees ageing prior to bottling has developed mid-palate weight and texture adding to the wine’s intense fruit characters.

Food Pairing: Fish, shellfish and salads.
