The 2020 Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand's Mud House is pale straw in hue. With aromas of fresh snow pea, nettles and tropical guava. The front palate is peppered with notes of melon and citrus, while the crisp grapefruit-like acidity lingers and adds texture.In stock

The fruit for the 2020 Mud House Sauvignon Blanc was sourced from the wineries Woolshed vineyard, in the upper Wairau Valley; along with long established growers in the Awatere and Wairau Valleys.
Our Marlborough vineyards are on moderately fertile glacial soils. This includes a mix of sandy loam over very deep gravels; fertile loams and clays.
The most important thing in making vibrant Sauvignon Blanc is to avoid oxidation and corruption. This is done every step of the way; from harvesting to putting the wine into the bottle. We keep every vineyard batch separate throughout the winemaking process until blending. The final process is fining and filtering, before the wine is then bottled.
All round 2020 was a great growing season, with warm temperatures ensuring perfect conditions for flowering and fruit set. The settled weather continued as the fruit ripened, with above average temperatures ensuring the development of juicy acidity and concentrated fruit flavours. At the time of picking, the fruit was in optimal condition — healthy, with great flavour and integrity. Winery Notes
