Lake Chalice The Falcon Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2024

Description

Dry, Herbal, Passionfruit

"Many classic aromas and pungency with passionfruit and lime then a sage and basil quality, all framed by a wet river pebble mineral quality. A just dry wine touches the palate with acidity and pungency, fruit flavours reflect the bouquet with citrus and tropical fruits persistent and powerful. Juicy and salivating with best drinking from 2025 through 2028" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Jan 2025

Pale green. Fresh green gooseberry and herbal aromas Herbacous thiols with distinct attractive flint aroma. Rich fresh palate of passionfruit, black currant bud, ripe tropicals, and a long mineral finish. Enjoy now and over the next 3 years. If it makes it past the time it takes to chill we’d be impressed.

Sourced from Marlborough’s Lower Wairau Valley, the grapes for this wine were picked in peak condition, before cool fermentation to retain freshness and elegance. The Falcon Sauvignon Blanc is made to showcase our Talon vineyard.

Pressed immediately following harvest to minimise skin contact and retain freshness, then coolfermented to maintain rich aromatics.
