Rohe Blind River Sauvignon Blanc 2026
BLIND RIVER SUB-REGION
The driest, coolest, and most wind-swept sub-region located on Marlborough's Southern Coast. The soil is free draining, and a mix of stone and clay.
TASTING NOTES
Intensely aromatic with lemongrass, yellow citrus, and an unforgettable richness on the palate. The mouth-watering acidity helps drive a lengthy finish. This wine is immediately expressive and will continue to drink well for the next five years
VINTAGE REPORT & WINEMAKING
2025 was a vintage where patience was rewarded. Spring's warm weather created ideal growing conditions and abundant crop loads, which we carefully reduced to enhance fruit quality. January's cool temperatures extended the fruit ripening period, enhancing pallet weight and aromatic intensity. Benefiting from ideal weather, we commenced harvest in mid-March, methodically working block by block as each reached optimal conditions.After gently pressing the grapes, juice was fermented in stainless steel with selected yeast strains to retain the flavours unique to this sub-region. Some batches of juice were fermented warmer to build plate weight. The cooler fermentations retained the aromatics and freshness. The best batches were tasted and blended, before being kept on lees for three months, prior to bottling.
