The 2007 growing season started with a wet spring with fortnightly rainfall leading to a poor flowering and fruit set but this was offset by the relatively high number of bunches per vine. The weather improved from late January and turned into a long, drawn out Indian summer with a slightly earlier than average start of harvest. We were able to harvest each block as it was ready with no weather pressure. With Giesens range of vineyard locations we get a considerable flavour profile which when blended provides a distinctive style that displays both ripe fruit and the crisper, green and lively components that are characteristic of Marlborough. The juice is processed under anaerobic conditions and fermented cool in stainless steel tanks to preserve the fresh vibrant fruit inherent to Sauvignon Blanc. The wine was blended, fined, stabilised then filtered before bottling under screwcap. |
