Pencarrow 2010
Sauvignon Blanc

Sauvignon Blanc is always fantastic as a young wine with intense aromatics. You will discover aromas of passionfruit and gooseberries. A block from our Clouston vineyard is selected for these wines. They will have aromas of passionfruits and gooseberries plus a hint of cut grass and similar characters on the palate.

Aroma

The nose is beautifully ripe and fragrant displaying feijoa, currant and herbaceous characters.

Palate

It's succulent and full of delicious flavours on the palate with a refreshing mouthfeel and a lingering finish. A fruit-forward and immediately appealing wine with excellent vibrancy.

Winemaking

The maritime climate of Martinborough coupled with thoughtful viticultural practices delivers ripe intensely flavoured Sauvignon Blanc.
Made from fruit drawn from a number of own and contracted vineyards this wine show the flavours and intensity that can be derived from thoughtful viticultural practices in New Zealand’s maritime climate
