The 2023 Auntsfield Single Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc is a vibrant ode to Marlborough’s rich winemaking legacy. Bursting with fresh, pure flavours and a distinctive minerality, this wine showcases the art of balance and elegance.
Winemaking for this vintage highlights precision and care. Grapes were picked during the cool evenings to preserve their vibrant aromatics. Fermentation occurred at low temperatures in stainless steel tanks with cultured yeast, ensuring the fruit’s freshness shone through. Extended lees contact post-fermentation added complexity, texture, and length, resulting in a wine with remarkable structure and a lingering finish.
Pairing Suggestions: Perfect with fresh oysters, grilled asparagus, goat’s cheese tart, or Thai green curry.
Tasting Note: Pale straw in colour, with intense aromas of passionfruit, lime, and lemongrass. The palate is powerful and vibrant, with ripe fruit, mandarin pith, and a crisp mineral finish.
