Crowded House Sauvignon Blanc 2011

Description

In the crowded world of wine, New Zealand is paradise for Sauvignon Blanc, and New Zealand's Marlborough region sits at the heart of it all. The abundant sunshine, low rainfall, cool nights and long growing season, help to build and maintain the vibrant, zesty fruit flavours which make wines from this corner of the world so distinctive. The fruit is the focus of Crowded House, sourcing the finest possible from dedicated growers is fundamental. Marlborough's best vineyards form the foundations for Crowded House, a Sauvignon Blanc that's generous and in fine balance
Crowded House is all about taking a fresh new look at classic New Zealand wines. Marlborough's vineyards yield wines with good length and a smorgasbord of fruit characters. The vines are picked batch by batch, at separate times. Early picking delivers fruit with higher acidity and wonderful citrus characters. Voluptuous, richly developed expressions are typical of later picked, riper fruit. Crowded House is well rehearsed at taking full advantage of the unique opportunitities presented each season. Fruit parcels are vinified individually, inoculated with select wild ferments, and assembled without any oak treatment whatsoever into a vibrant and fresh, fruit forward styling.
