Vintage summary spring was typical in marlborough with the vineyard team spending many a long nights fighting off jack frost. This flowed into a warm dry summer thus laying the foundation for a quality harvest. Harvesting fruit on flavour with a careful eye on maturity data certainly paid dividends with harvest continuing until the end of april. Attentive viticulture and winemaking has provided us with many exceptionally good parcels of sauvignon blanc and the winemaker’s task of blending was a pleasure. Expect some full-flavoured well-balanced and textured wines in 2016. Winemaker’s note an aromatically intense wine showing aromas of white flesh nectarine tropical fruit salad gooseberry and lemon zest. Other aromas noted include quince nettle dried oregano and cut straw. The palate has a fleshy entry and seamless flow finishing with a lively crisp acidity – lingering citrus flavours and cut straw. Vinification grapes harvested in the cool of the night were gently pressed
