Stoneleigh Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2006
Winery: "True to Stoneleigh€s distinctive style, this classic, lively Sauvignon Blanc captures the essence of Marlborough, New Zealand€s most acclaimed winemaking region. Pale straw this wine is a ripe, full-bodied Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc that displays lifted passion fruit and grapefruit aromas, with overlaying mineral notes. The passion fruit and grapefruit characters are indicative of ripe Sauvignon Blanc from the Rapaura soils, and minerality is a fermentation complexity from the stony river bed terrior. The palate displays tropical, passion fruit and citrus flavours. These flavours have been emphasised by the winemaker, by controlling skin contact time and matching yeast to best emphasize the wine's terroir. The wine has tightness and concentration of flavour that is balanced by natural fresh acidity."
