“Bright, fresh sauvignon blanc with pineapple, guava, passionfruit and red capsicum flavours. A crisp and refreshing wine, with an ethereal texture and mouth- watering finish.”92 points – Bob Campbell MW
A compilation that turns the flavour dial up to 11, this Sauvignon Blanc opens with a mix of driving lemon, current, and fresh herb rhythms. These upbeat flavours harmonise effortlessly with the base notes of mineral imparted by our stony riverbed soils.
WINE MAKING
Winemaking is all about preserving each site’s individual identity, so it’s kept simple. Juices from each vineyard are kept separate and fermented with an appropriate yeast in stainless steel tanks. Individual wines are then blended according to our idea of a complementary whole.
TASTE
Bright aromatics; grapefruit, sweet herbs and nettle. Distinctive yellow citrus on the palate, with red capsicum and a splash of more tropical fruit. The wine is dry, with a mouth-watering line of fine acid. Easy to drink on its own, or to match with food.
FOOD MATCH
Versatile on the table; try green lipped mussels or other shellfish, Caesar salad.
We planted our first vines in the Wairau Valley in 1981, and we’ve been growing grapes and making wine by our own rules ever since. Taking the best of what we learn from the F-Series and incorporating it into the Framingham range, these full-flavoured wines embody subtle nuances, balanced minerality, and mouth-filling textures.
