A pure & vibrant expression

A pure & vibrant expression
Description
Blackcurrant, Dry, Nectarine
Pure and expressive showing vibrant passionfruit, tropical fruit and grapefruit aromas, with underlying blackcurrant leaf and herbal notes. Concentrated and elegant, with fruit flavours that are consistent with the nose; grapefruit, mango and herbal. A lively acidity and mineral drive, provide the wine with exceptional concentration and length. Enjoy now, or cellar 2-4 years.
Our S1 block Sauvignon Blanc comes from a sun soaked site, moderated by cool, coastal breezes on our Seaview Vineyard. The subsequent style and flavours reflect this terroir, with flavours of ripe nectarine and a lush, full palate balanced by mouth-watering mineral acidity.
The carefully harvested fruit from our S1 block was destemmed, chilled and gently pressed. The juice was cold settled for 72 hours, after which the clear juice was racked off. A long, cool fermentation with a specialist Sauvignon Blanc yeast followed to capture and enhance the distinctive fruit flavours created by the S1 block. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was racked, stabilised and filtered before bottling.
Food Pairing: Freshly shucked oysters, grilled shrimp or sashimi, grilled chicken with lemon or herbed-based sauces, fresh mozzarella salads, pesto pasta dishes.
