"Pristine and elegantly lifted, the bouquet shows green apple, nectarine, grapefruit and lemon peel aromas, leading to a finely focused palate offering youthful charm and lingering juicy fruit intensity. Well-structured by vibrant acidity, fishing long and crisp-dry. At its best: now to 2024" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Oct 2021
"Bright, fresh, crisp sauvignon blanc with passionfruit, guava, capsicum and nectarine flavours. Quite a weighty, textural and silken wine supported by moderately assertive acidity" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Sep 2021
"The attractive, vibrant 2021 vintage (4*) was cool-fermented in tanks and made in a bone-dry style. Bright, light lemon/green, it is full-bodied, with generous, ripe, passionfruit-like flavours to the fore, and fresh, crisp acidity to keep things lively. Good drinking for the summer of 2021-22" Michael Cooper, Sep 2021
It has tropical fruit flavours like gooseberry and passionfruit threaded with lime and mineral notes. An intense and persistent Martinborough Sauvignon Blanc.
Grown in their Pirinoa Block in Martinborough.
Conditions over the second half of the 2021 growing season were near to perfect, however cool, damp weather during flowering, resulted in yields being down 50% overall compared to an average yielding year. The result – great fruit – but not much of it.
Their Sauvignon Blanc is cool fermented in stainless steel tanks.
