Vineyard & Winemaking Notes

Marlborough is located on the northern tip of New Zealand’s South Island on the strait between the Pacific Ocean and the Tasman Sea. It is an area ideal for the Sauvignon Blanc grape. Sunshine is abundant with cool nights and a long growing season. Early morning harvest and cool fermentation with a range of yeast types in stainless steel retain the aromatic fruit characters. This wine is bottled young to preserve the fresh, lively style.
