Boatshed Bay Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2024

Description

Apple, Dry, Herbal

Our 2024 Sauvignon Blanc is bursting with ripe tropical flavours, fresh green apple and hints of fresh citrus. On the palate it has a juicy acidity and layered tropical fruit with a hint of fresh greens and salinity. This wine extends to a long concentrated finish.

Our Sauvignon Blanc is crafted from premium fruit grown in the Awatere and Wairau Valleys of Marlborough, New Zealand. Combining fruit from each of these regions adds an extra dimension to the wine; the Wairau Valley fruit lifting the aromatics, whilst the Awatere component adds an attractive mineral note.

The Marlborough growing region is New Zealand’s premier wine producing area. It is known for its diverse terrain of rugged mountain ranges and vast stretches of flat valleys outlined by jagged hills. The area is marked by plentiful bodies of water from streams and rivers to the famed Marlborough Sounds and captivating views of the South Pacific Ocean. One of New Zealand’s sunniest and driest regions, Marlborough enjoys about 2,400 annual sunshine hours. With an average daytime temperature of 18°C and cool nights brought on by coastal winds, it offers idyllic conditions for growing world-class Sauvignon Blanc.

We believe in letting the quality of our fruit show through in the wine. Our Sauvignon Blanc is picked at the peak of the season and gently pressed before being fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks. The result is a wine that is the purest expression of our Marlborough terroir.

Food Pairing: Perfect with seafood, a cheese platter or roast pork.
