The Organic Riverland Sauvignon Blanc NV is crafted from certified organic vineyards, ensuring minimal intervention and a true expression of the terroir.

Vineyards and Vintage Conditions

The grapes for this Sauvignon Blanc are sourced from organically certified vineyards in the Riverland region of South Australia. The 2021 vintage benefited from optimal growing conditions, with warm days and cool nights that allowed the grapes to ripen evenly, preserving their natural acidity and aromatic character.

Winemaking

The grapes were hand-harvested and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve freshness and fruit purity. The wine underwent malolactic fermentation and was aged with subtle oak influence to add complexity without overshadowing the varietal character. Minimal intervention practices were employed throughout the winemaking process to maintain the organic integrity of the wine.
