2009 long cow Sauvignon Blanc
Recommended Retail $22.95 NZD Cellar Door Retail $19.00 The 2009 vintage exhibits the amazing aromatics and fruit spectrum that Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc has to offer
Auntsfield produces a distinctive style of Sauvignon Blanc. The style is aimed towards texture, complexity and length, balancing the typical Marlborough fruit spectrum and aromatics with richness and mouth feel.
The fruit for this wine was grown on the original “Long Cow” Paddock, land used in colonial times to graze the Auntsfield house-cow.
Colour:Pale straw/gold.
Aroma:Lifted aromas of ripe passionfruit, lemon, lime blossom and rich tropical fruits with hints of orange peel and gooseberry.
Palate:Rich, tight and elegant. This wine shows intense flavours of passionfruit and gooseberry balanced with juicy, ripe tropical fruit - reminiscent of papaya, banana and wild honey. Underlying minerality balances the generous palate weight and mouth filling texture. A complex wine with a long lingering finish.
Chemistry:Alc 13.5% pH 3.24 TA 8.2
