There is a windswept elegance to Marlborough’s famed Wairau Valley. It is both the heart of the district and home to some of the country’s most famous wines. The region takes its name from the Wairau River, which flows from the alpine ranges in the west to the ocean at Cloudy Bay. Wines from the Wairau Valley are rich, elegant, generous and concentrated. Goldwater’s wines are considered by many aficionados to be among the finest of the appellation.
From the distant silhouetted mountains behind us to the indigo blue ocean before us, the Marlborough countryside is world famous and undeniably romantic. Its home, the celebrated Wairau Valley, is a place of wistful beauty and extraordinary terroir. Its history is rich and colourful. Goldwater was founded in 1978, making us among the oldest wine producers in New Zealand. For more than three decades our talented viticultural and winemaking team has worked diligently to create wines that mirror the character and personality of our unique coastal region.
The growing season in the Wairau Valley is defined by moderate temperatures, chilly nights and little rainfall. The combination of low-fertility soils and a cool climate naturally restricts yields and intensifies the fruit flavours in our wines. We practise sustainable viticultural methods to ensure the long-term viability of the land and to capture the authenticity of the region. All of our vineyards are carefully managed with a focus on quality rather than quantity.
Gently harvested during the cool morning hours to retain the bright, pristine characteristics of the grapes. With the fruit arriving at the winery possessing such extraordinary flavours and textures, the winemakers primary task is to preserve and enhance those elements. This Sauvignon Blanc 2020 shows the influence of its unique climate and complex soils. After harvesting, the fruit is gently pressed and cold settle the juice before transferring to temperature controlled stainless steel tanks for fermentation.
