Spy Valley Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2021
- Dry style
- Grapefruit
- Passionfruit
- Mouth-watering acidity
Lifted floral notes on the nose, grapefruit and white peach. Distinctive flavours of passionfruit and sweet lime intermingled with layers of minerality. The mid palate is rich and textured with a mouth-watering acidity.
Grapes were from 3 different vineyards in Marlborough: Waihopai Valley - alluvial stony silt loams, very well drained; Mid Wairau Valley - varying depth of alluvial silt loam over gravel, well drained; Lower Wairau Valley - deep alluvial silt deposits over gravel.
Spring frosts during flowering led to smaller bunches and lighter crops this vintage. Impeccable weather throughout the ripening period, combined with warm days and cool nights resulted in well balanced flavour and acidity.
Grapes were harvested in the cool of the morning at peak flavour maturity. Gentle juice extraction, cold settled and fermented in stainless steel tanks and a portion in older oak with a range of aromatic yeasts providing a layer of texture and complexity.
