Seresin Estate, tech sheet (cdn.shopify.com – linket fra seresin.co.nz, hentet 2026-10-19): 2014 Seresin Estate Sauvignon Blanc – område: Marlborough; 96% Sauvignon Blanc, 4% Sémillon; alkohol 12.5%. Producentens noter (engelsk): SERESIN ESTATE SAUVIGNON BLANC 2014 TASTING NOTE: Subtle on the nose with warm notes of ripe yellow stone-fruit, soft passion fruit and a chalky-mineral complexity. The palate is layered and finelytextured, with ripe gooseberry, tropical and citrus notes, framed by a mouth-watering acidity, which creates a persistent finish. Drink dates: Now until 2019 VINTAGE: Minimal frosts during the spring and perfect flowering conditions resulted in a good crop and even berry set. A warm early summer initially, but temperatures cooled after solstice to give a long ripening period, with stable conditions until the end of the first week of April. Heavy rain followed, but caused no problems at the Estate. VINEYARD: Certified organic fruit was hand-picked from two of our biodynamic vineyards: 40% came from Raupo Creek where the soils are rich and clay-based and 60% came from the upper terraces of our Noa vineyard, on Waimakiriri soils of alluvial origin. WINEMAKING: 18 different parcels of Sauvignon Blanc and two of Semillon from different vineyard blocks were pressed and fermented separately. The wine was naturally fermented using wild yeast, and 20% of the total blend was fermented in old French oak barriques to give complexity and texture. After eight months, all the separate parcels were tasted and blended to create an interesting and elegant style.
