Mystery Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2018 (07)

Description

Dry

Very pale straw in colour with pronounced lemon and lime and tropical notes of passionfruit and melon. The palate is crisp and elegant with lovely length and concentration. This wine shows lovely clarity with bright fruit and a chalky, dry finish that highlights the mineral tones. Enjoy over the next two to three years.

Once picked the grapes are gently pressed and the free run juice is predominately fermented in stainless steel tanks with specially selected yeast strains that enhance the wonderful aromatics. A small portion of the wine is fermented with wild yeasts (from the vineyard) in barrel (7%) and in tank (7%). Each tank is kept separate and tasted on a regular basis and only the best are selected for the final blend.

Food Pairing: Seafood, shellfish, salads, feta, goat cheese, fresh herbs, Vietnamese-style dishes, garlic prawns, light Thai dishes.
