Greywacke ‘Wild’ Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough 2020

Imagine a summer fruit salad of paw paw, honeydew melon and ripe, golden quinces – drizzled with citrus flower water and a squeeze of orange skin oil. A delicious floral fragrance and juicy tropical fruit, infused with a fennel-like herbal thread and a faint whiff of wood smoke. Fermented entirely with naturally occurring yeast, this is an alternative style of sauvignon blanc that is both intricate and textural, with a rich, succulent palate finishing crisp and long with a flinty dryness

The wine had occasional lees stirring and
approximately two-thirds underwent malolactic fermentation. It was transferred out of oak prior
to the following harvest and left on yeast lees for a further five months
