Made in a way that is atypical of Sauvignon Blanc from the region, the Kelly Washington Sauvignon Blanc subsequently has quite a unique expression. The hallmark of the wine is texture; thanks largely to aging on lees in French oak; yet the palate is vibrant and defined. There is a beautiful elderflower note that is felt on both the nose and palate. Overall, a very grown up and delicious Sauvignon Blanc!
Truly a vintage favouring the white varietals in Marlborough. Vintage 2022 was challenging, and really rewarded the most fastidious growers and winemakers. Hand harvesting and only selecting the perfect bunches was key to making great wines. Dry conditions over flowering resulted in an abundant fruit set and above average crops. The region then experienced consistently falling, small rain events that increased berry size and unfortunately also disease pressure, this also prevailed into the harvest period. Thankfully, with very good management in the vineyard to open the canopy and crop thin, and ultimately hand harvesting, we were rewarded with beautiful fruit.
100% Whole bunch pressed. Minimal settling. Commenced fermentation after 6 days, 100 % wild yeast. 100% French oak barriques and puncheons. 16% new, 16% neutral ( 2 barriques). 68% 3rd fill ( 2 puncheons). After a long fermentation ( 2 months), the wine remained in the above vessels, on full lees, for a further 8 months. It was then racked into tank and blended.
At Kelly Washington we seek the most unique and diverse parcels of high quality fruit, which we translate into our elegant and honest wines.
