Lawson's Dry Hills Estate Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2022
- Dry style
- Passionfruit
- Herbaceous
- Balanced acidity
"Lovely pure white flesh fruit bouquet laced with a cool wet stone mineral quality and aromas of Meyer lemon and tropical fruits then fresh sage and basil herbs. The palate reflects the bouquet with ripe white fleshed fruit flavours, herbs and tropical fruit highlights. Vibrant, fresh, salivating and dry on the finish. Best drinking from 2023 through 2027" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Sep 2022
The 2022 Estate Sauvignon Blanc is bursting with lemon, passionfruit and ripe tropical fruit, tied together with layers of fresh, green, herbaceous characters. The palate has lovely fruit concentration, balanced acidity and a gentle, dry finish.
This wine comes from just two of our vineyards, a nearly equal split between our Awatere and Waihopai Valley blocks. Growing on only two or three canes keeps our crop levels low which ensures beautiful selection of weight and flavour concentration.
With rain in February, warm weather and early development of flavour, we picked at a slightly lower brix this year. Each block was picked when they reached maximum passionfruit characters and while the acidity was bright and crisp. The grapes were gently pressed before being fermented in stainless steel tanks with selected cultured yeast, while 4% was fermented with wild yeast in old French barriques.
Food Pairing: Seafood, shellfish, salads, feta, goat cheese, fresh herbs, Vietnamese-style dishes, garlic prawns, light Thai dishes.
