- An adaptable wine that is superb with an array of different dishes such as Grilled Dover Sole to a Goat Cheese Salad. With these beautiful aromas and perfectly balanced acidity, our Aquamarine will accompany the freshest of summer dishes
- Perfumed with ripe tropical fruits, which are also evident on the palate along with limey flavors and a rich minerality, which are all classic notes of a Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, our wine is also refreshingly zippy and delicious!
- Fruit for this wine is sourced from vineyards throughout Marlborough’s Wairau Valley. From coastal vineyards in Rarangi (coastal pea gravels, sand and silt), up through the central region (old gravel riverbed with fertile top soil), and southern valley vineyards (clay loams over silt and gravel), to vineyards in the Rapaura area (stony river bed soils). The vines are grown on the VSP trellis system to give optimal cropping to gain maximum flavor during the growing season. Grapes are picked and immediately pressed to tanks for clarification. Then the fruit is gently pressed, cold settled, racked and cool fermented with selected yeast strains to enhance the unique aromatics and flavors.Each individual parcel was the racked, before being blended together to create this generous, full-textured style. The wine was then filtered and bottled to retain and capture its remarkable freshness.
