Delta Hatters Hill Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2022
- Dry style
- Tropical fruit
- Stone fruit
- Mineral finish
"This is intensely aromatic on the nose with passionfruit, kaffir lime, lemongrass and green tea aromas, leading to a powerfully expressed palate that's filled with juicy fruit intensity. Brilliantly structured by mouth-watering acidity, offering fabulous drinking. At its best: now to 2026" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Mar 2023
Pale green in the glass. Pungent aromas of tropical fruits, grapefruit and passionfruit. A bright and opulent wine with complex layers of fleshy stonefruit, grapefruit and a salty mineral finish.
Selected from a single vineyard in the Dillons Point area of Marlborough. Close to the ocean, this sub-region experiences long hot days balanced by the effect of cooling sea breezes at night. The 2022 vintage started with cool spring weather which extended the length of flowering, leading to open bunches. A long and hot growing season led to lower crop levels with increased intensity of expressive tropical characteristics. Ripening steadily throughout the growing period, the fruit was continually monitored until a balance of flavour, acidity and physiological ripeness was reached.
During a cool evening, the vineyard was machine harvested and the grapes quickly transported to the winery where they were destemmed and pressed. After settling, the juice was fermented at cool temperatures and racked off lees quickly to retain the vibrant fruit flavours and freshness of this Sauvignon Blanc. Heather then selected her favourite components from this vineyard to produce our flagship Hatters Hill Sauvignon Blanc.
Food Pairing: An ideal match with pan-fried scallops, or soft goats cheese salad.
