Ana Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2024

Description

Dry, Kiwifruit, Passionfruit

"Fabulously expressed, the bouquet shows feijoa, kiwifruit, pineapple and lemon zest aromas, followed by a splendidly flavoursome palate that's juicy and lively. Upfront and highly enjoyable. At its best: now to 2026" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jun 2024

"A classic sauvignon blanc with aromas of gooseberries, grapefruit and fresh grass. The palate is medium-bodied with grapefruit and honeydew flavors, fresh acidity and a clean finish. Drink now" James Suckling

Flavours of blackcurrant leaf and passionfruit, balanced with aromas of fresh herbs and citrus. The palate is juicy fruit with a long, crisp mineral finish.

The fruit was destemmed and gently pressed. The juice was cold settled for 72 hours, after which the clear juice was racked off, followed by a long cool fermentation in stainless steel to capture and enhance the fruit flavours. Each of the individual parcels were fermented separately using a range of selected yeasts to enhance varietal characters. The wine was then blended, stabilised and filtered in preparation for bottling.

Food Pairing: Enjoy with fresh seafood or a grilled chicken salad.
