Winemaker Notes
This iteration of Neudorf Sauvignon Blanc shows a nose of exquisite orange blossom with an undercurrent of summer herbs. This wine speaks with one voice, nothing is intrusive or out of place. The pure fruit pushes across the palate to an extended and full mineral finish. It is refreshing and mouth filling. Dry but contains excellent weight of fruit on the palate. An example of the new Sauvignon Blanc where restraint and purity are primary motivators. The word is elegance.
Recognized for its distinctively herbaceous and aromatic, Sauvignon Blanc, New Zealand is perfectly suited to the grape with its maritime climate, plenty of rainfall and abundant sunshine. Producers have almost unilaterally embraced cutting-edge winery technology, resulting in clean, high-quality wines at every price point from wallet-friendly to premium. Sauvignon blanc is at its best in Marlborough but thrives throughout as the country. It is New Zealand’s most planted and successful variety, also accounting for an overwhelming majority of its exports.
