Paddy and Anna Trolove grew the Taihoa Sauvignon Blanc on low-cropping vines in the coastal hills of Kekerengu under the watchful eye of viticulturist Stephen Dempster. Grapes were hand-picked and whole-bunch pressed and the wine was barrel-fermented using wild yeast, retained solids, and lees-stirring. The wine was then aged in French-oak barrels. Astrolabe Taihoa Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc is lemon gold in colour and displays aromas of fresh-cut passionfruit, lime curd, currant leaf and citrus zest. The palate offers powerful passionfruit, guava and limoncello flavours, and a chalky, mineral texture.?This wine will continue to develop rewarding flavour and bottle complexity with ageing.
