"It’s elegantly fruited and fabulously expressed on the nose showing cranberry, peach, apple and white floral characters, leading to a vibrant palate that is light and bright. The wine offers excellent fruit purity as well as lively acidity, making it gorgeously drinkable" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Nov 2019
Elegantly fruitful expressing mixed summer berries, watermelon, red apple and white floral characters. Vibrant, light and beautifully balanced with concentrated flavours of raspberry, watermelon and strawberries and cream. The finish is fresh, crisp and delivers a fine texture.
The Thirty One Rows vineyard is as rich in fertile soil as it is in history, located on an old alluvial gold-mining route in the Onamalutu Valley, home to a significant gold rush in 1894. Now known as the emerging wine subregion of Northbank in Marlborough, Thirty One Rows is the number of rows of each ultra-low yielding and organically farmed, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.
The fruit was hand harvested (1st vintage from this vineyard) in the cool just after dawn to retain freshness and capture fruit flavours. The fruit sat on skins for a few hours only, ensuring a delicate colour extraction. After settling, 65% of the juice was fermented at cool temperatures in a single stainless-steel tank using a selected yeast strain. The remaining 35% of the juice was fermented in an exquisite 3-year-old teardrop Perle de Quintessence French oak barrel to add complexity and offer a hint of soft oak aromatic. At the end of the fermentation the wines were blended, fined, filtered and bottled immediately.
