Cracka Review
You’ll have a Crowded House when you crack open this smart Savvy from Marlborough. No one will be able to resist the taste, the vitality, the utter refreshment when this has been chilled to perfection. It’s layered in citrus, passionfruit and redolent of lime leaf and lemongrass. Zesty with the refreshment of a citrus granita, a core of sweetness but refreshing, clean acids, this wine just needs a summer’s day, and some seafood to shine.
Winemaker's Notes
A drought summer for Marlborough this season resulted in low crops and fruit with an excellent concentration of flavour. With harvest late March and early April, across vineyards in the Wairau Valley and Southern Valley sub-regions of Marlborough.
The resulting 2016 Sauvignon Blanc is quintessentially Marlborough in profile with bright aromas of guava, citrus fruits, blackcurrant and sweet crushed herbs. The palate is elegantly proportioned with lovely soft acid carrying the fruit flavours to a long, pure finish. Enjoy with fresh seafood, summer salads and Asian cuisine.
Winemaking: Harvest commenced on March 23rd and continued until April 10th for the 2016 Crowded House Sauvignon Blanc. A small shift in where the fruit was sourced in 2016 has resulted in a wine with a greater aromatic range than previous years and a softer, rounder palate structure. All fruit was fermented in tank with selected yeast strains, maintaining aromatic purity and capturing the essence of Marlborough. The wine was allowed to build additional interest and texture through extended lees ageing post fermentation. True to its house style, the 2016 displays lovely citrus drive but is noticeable also for its stone fruit and white currant notes. The palate is quintessentially Marlborough - bright and fresh with lovely a clean acid backbone carrying the fruit flavours to a long, pure finish.

Expert Reviews
Michael Cooper (2010 Vintage) says
A good buy. The 2010 vintage, grown in the Wairau Valley, is punchy, with melon, lime and green-capsicum flavours, fresh and delicate, and a lingering, dry finish.

Michael Cooper (2008 Vintage) says
A good buy. The 2008 vintage is vibrantly fruity, with ripe melon/lime flavours woven with fresh acidity and a dry (3.5 grams/litre of residual sugar) finish.
