  Mount Riley Sauvignon Blanc 2012
 
 
Mount Riley Sauv Blanc.gif
  This is it folks, simply put, a true Classic!

Colour: Light straw with green hues.

Bouquet: Complex with capsicum, crushed herb, pink grapefruit and tropical fruit aromas.

Palate: Fantastic fruit weight and intensity of flavour is matched with mouth-watering acidity.

Winemaking: Marlborough's weather during flowering in December 2011 was cooler than average which led to naturally low yields in 2012. This cool weather continued through summer and was followed by warm, settled Autumn conditions. The resulting long growing season and low yields allowed fruit to develop intense aromatics and concentrated flavours.

Our 2012 Sauvignon Blanc is a blend from multiple vineyard sites throughout Marlborough, with over 90% from the Wairau Valley. Grapes were crushed and destemmed prior to pressing and fermentation was induced by the introduction of carefully selected yeast strains. We fermented in stainless steel at cool temperatures to preserve the lifted aromatics in this wine.
