Shelter Bay Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc (750ml)

All blocks were harvested in the early hours of the morning to reduce field heat and enhance flavour. Individually pressed to tank the batches were settled for 72 hours before racking the clear juice off for ferment. Juice was warmed and then inoculated using only the best cultured yeast strains to enhance and complement the pure fruit character of our vineyard sites. Average fermentation lasted 3 weeks at mid to low temperatures to maximise aroma and flavour. Post fermentation the young wines were aged on light lees for up to 3 months prior to being blended and prepared for bottling.
