Kim Crawford Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2016
The grapes for this vintage were selected from vineyards in Marlborough’s Wairau Valley and the neighboring Awatere Valley. Fast draining, alluvial loams over gravelly sub-soils in these valleys, provide ideal growing conditions for Sauvignon Blanc. Individual blocks were targeted for their strengths and overall contribution to the blend. The wines ranged in age, up to 15 years, bringing a mix of youthful vigor and depth of flavor.
