Windrush Organic Sauvignon Blanc, 2019
Windrush Organic Sauvignon Blanc, 2019
Passionfruit, guava, lime and green capsicum.
A single vineyard 2019 Sauvignon Blanc grown from our Terrace Stone Vineyard on Hammond Road near Renwick, right in the heart of Marlborough. 2019 was a superb growing season with plenty of spring rain producing beautiful lush growth, then a typically hot, dry summer, with just enough cool nights. 10% was fermented in neutral French oak which underwent weekly lees stirring adding to intense richness. 5% of the barrel portion was fermented by wild yeast.

“This certified Bio-gro example has a lovely bouquet both classic and modern aromas and flavours of baked bell-pepper, grass, tropical fruit, citrus and peach. Dry on the palate with flavours could be nothing else other than Sauvignon Blanc - reflecting the bouquet with herbs, white spices and ripe fruits. Lengthy, balanced and well made. Drink now and through 2023.” Cameron Douglas, MS. Published August 11, 2019
