2024 Stoneburn New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc

The wine shows fresh and vibrant tropical notes that lingers on. Peach and white pear characters are supported by some herbaceous notes. Its zesty, tangy acid structure helps to retain these characters into a well-balanced wine.

The style is clean and dry, resulting in a crisp and refreshing finish.

The fruit was picked in the cool of the morning and processed using anaerobic techniques. The cool fruit was de-stemmed, crushed and lightly pressed for settling. Clear juice was then racked and warmed for fermentation in stainless steel vats. We used cultured yeasts to accentuate the fruity, varietal characters in the wine. Following fermentation, the wine was racked off the lees to retain the fresh fruit characters before being blended and bottled at the Estate.
