Opawa Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2022 750ml

Opawa Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2022 750ml

Made from grapes sourced principally from our own Opawa vineyard on Rapaura gravel soils, the fruit was machine harvested and immediately pressed at the winery. A cool fermentation followed using aromatic yeast, with a small portion being fermented in a large oak cuvee to add a textural element to the wine. After a short period of yeast lees, the wine was clarified and filtered prior to bottling in July 2021.

This wine is a bright lemon colour with a hint of green. Exotic perfumes leap from the glass with vivacious aromas of fresh gooseberries, passionfruit and hints of fresh sweet herbs. The palate is refreshing and intense, displaying crisp citrus notes and passionfruit flavours, this wine is well-balanced and focused with crisp acidity and a long, juicy, mouth-watering finish.

Alc: 13.5%
