This single vineyard rendition of Sauvignon Blanc is sourced from the Holdaway Family vineyard at Dillons Point – our favourite sub region for the variety. It is a classic expression of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, being 100% tank fermented, but it offers complexity of texture and a mineral drive that summons river stones and sea spray. Blackcurrant, guava and passionfruit are captured alongside the subtlest hint of oyster-shell. This wine is focused and explosive on both nose and palate yet remains elegantly balanced and distinctly salty.
Winemakers Notes
Our winemaking philosophy with this wine is simple: let the vineyard speak — capture the pure essence of Marlborough fruit and translate terroir into the bottle without adding anything that masks its voice.
To honour that intent, grapes were machine-harvested in the cool of night to preserve bright acidity and delicate aromatics, then crushed and gently pressed to avoid skin-driven phenolics before the juice was transferred straight to stainless steel.
The must settled naturally and fermented at cool temperatures to retain primary fruit expression, then spent time on light lees to build silky texture and mouthfeel, before a gentle crossflow filtration and bottling.
