## Description

Framingham's Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough is famous for its striking character. Yet our interpretation of this timeless classic has hidden depths. There is a complex soul beneath that untamed boldness. Ripe fruit from the Wairau Valley, a touch of skin fermentation, and a brief time in oak and acacia barrels have added layers of flavour and texture. This is a wine that does not reveal everything at first tasting.

Each parcel of fruit is kept separate in the winery. The musts were predominantly fermented in stainless steel using several different treatments; however, 8% of the final wine was fermented in oak and acacia barrels. A small portion was fermented on the skins. 50% of the blend was aged on fermentation lees for 5 months before being blended and bottled.

Framingham's Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough was designed to be typically "Marlborough" in style, with a few twists. Texture and mouthfeel are as important to us as the aromatic and flavour profile. Consequently, our Sauvignon Blanc is a very food-friendly wine.

Enjoy with sushi, mussels, oysters… It pairs with all kinds of seafood, especially shellfish, salads and light summer dishes.
