The Estate has two separate ‘blocks’ of Sauvignon Blanc – an older vineyard planted in the early 1990’s and a younger vineyard of the best selected clonal stock available. The older vineyard is low yielding and produces wines with more body and the younger vineyard produces wine with more varietal lift and definition.
Certainly one of the best Sauvignon’s we have produced with good fruit weight and flavours. The ability to blend wines from different vineyards of varying ripeness has produced a wine with an attractive array of flavours from light herbaceous hints through to the more tropical passionfruit noses.
