Babydoll Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2021
- Dry style
- Passionfruit
- Citrus
- Fresh acidity
"A heady, perfumed nose, popping with herbal aromas and hints of yellow capsicum jam, passionfruit, citrus peel and smoky lanolin. Lush, tasty, texturally engaging wine with fresh salivating lemon acidity and buttery notes. A complex style with interest and intrigue" NZ Wine Rater, Nov 2021
The nose is lifted with fresh notes of passionfruit, citrus and blackcurrant leaf. The sweet fruit characters on the palate and fresh acidity combine to create an expressive and attractive Sauvignon Blanc.
This is the earliest harvest on record since our inception. There were late spring frosts in Marlborough and some challenging weather over the flowering period, which resulted in moderate crops throughout the region. These moderate crops, coupled with a warm and stable end to the growing season, set us up for an early start with stunning fruit. We had clear warm days throughout March, so we could pick at our leisure, without any pressure from the elements. The Sauvignon Blanc produced from this vintage has concentrated fruit flavours, with a vibrant pure palate and an elegant fresh finish.
Individual parcels of Sauvignon Blanc were selected for this wine from our Awatere and Wairau Valley vineyards. The parcels were harvested and fermented separately, using selected yeast strains for Sauvignon Blanc to enhance varietal character. A long, cool fermentation took place over three weeks, with the parcels then being blended and stabilised, prior to bottling.
Food Pairing: Beautiful with fresh seafood and salads.
