Notes from Alan McCorkindale website: www.alanmccorkindale.com
Harvested from ‘old vines’ planted in rocky river terraces in Marlborough’s Wairau Valley, New Zealand. Low vigour vines are naturally low cropping, producing intense flavoured fruit. Machine harvested at night, gently crushed and pressed, then fermented with aromatic yeasts. Wine aged ‘sur lies,’ minimal filtration and stabilisation, hand labelled with no compromise on quality.
Pale straw. Aromas of current bud, hawthorn, tomato leaf and citrus, with hints of mint. Palate is vibrant, dry, with a racy acid backbone, delicate and intense with distinctive minerality and flintiness, and a very long finish.
Taste the freshness of this Sauvignon Blanc with any fresh seafood, especially good with Japanese dishes. Drink now-2020.
