Esk Valley Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 75cl

Esk Valley Sauvignon Blanc New Zealand White Wine

The individual vineyard parcels were harvested and transported to the winery for immediate crushing to capture the freshness of the fruit. Fermentation was conducted at cool temperatures utilising selected yeast strains. Post fermentation the new wines were left on lees to gain richness and complexity.

TASTING NOTES
This is a very intense and powerful wine. True to its Marlborough origins its flavours are a mix of ripe tropical fruits, citrus and cooler notes of fresh herbs, tomato leaf and pea pod. It is dry and full bodied but a crisp finish provides freshness and length.

FOOD PAIRINGS
Salads, goat’s cheese, Oriental, fish and shellfish
