Mud House Sauvignon Blanc 2024 is a vibrant and crisp Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc from what will be remembered as one of the most fantastic growing seasons in recent memory — a hot summer and dry autumn delivering fruit of intense flavour and optimal phenological ripeness, picked clean and healthy across the Wairau and Awatere Valleys. Pale straw in colour, with tropical scents enhanced by lively citrus and a touch of freshly mown grass, and a palate of lemon, lime, and guava balanced by delicate capsicum undertones, culminating in a clean, refreshing finish.
Appearance
Pale straw — the bright, fresh colour of a Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc of genuine vibrancy and energy.
Aroma
Vibrant tropical scents are enhanced by lively citrus and a touch of freshly mown grass — expressive, fresh, and immediately appealing, with the classic Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc character in full voice.
Palate
Crisp and refreshing — prominent flavours of lemon, lime, and guava are balanced by delicate capsicum undertones that add brightness and energy, culminating in a clean and refreshing finish of genuine length and satisfaction.
Pairs With
Fresh oysters, grilled fish, Thai green curry, goat’s cheese, and light salads. A classic Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc for the classic warm-weather table.
The most important thing in making vibrant Sauvignon Blanc is to preserve aromas and freshness — and this is done at every step, from harvesting to bottling. Every vineyard batch is kept separate throughout the winemaking process until blending, ensuring the distinct character of each site is preserved in the final wine. The fruit is sourced across the expanse of the Marlborough wine-growing region, including Mud House’s own Woolshed vineyard in the upper Wairau Valley, along with long-established growers in the Awatere and Wairau Valleys. Vineyards are on moderately fertile glacial soils — a mix of sandy loam over very deep gravels, fertile loams, and clays. The final process is fining and filtering before bottling.
Vintage Conditions
2024 will be remembered as one of the most fantastic growing seasons in recent memory. A couple of early frosts during flowering impacted yield — which was down on the previous year — but the hot summer and dry autumn conditions that followed provided the ultimate setting for the fruit to ripen and develop intense flavour. The fruit was picked clean and healthy, at optimal phenological ripeness — a vintage that more than rewarded those who waited for the right moment to harvest.
