2024 Urlar Sauvignon Blanc, Gladstone, New Zealand
ABOUT THIS WINE
The grapes were harvested according to flavor and skin ripeness. To express the purity of fruit flavors from the winery's site the majority of the wine was fermented in stainless steel tanks. A 25% portion was fermented in aged oak barriques and another in skins for aromatic spice and texture. The combination gives a wine full of varietal characters that express the site at Urlar.
ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
Economic and environmental sustainability are Urlar's driving principals. These practices are about giving life back to the soil and managing the vineyard as a balanced sustainable unit. This includes organic practices such as recycling through composts and liquid manures and increasing plant biodiversity. Using the biodynamic farming and gardening calendar, the rhythmic influences of the sun, moon, planets and stars are recognized and worked where possible. This commitment has been recognized and rewarded recently when they won the Hills Harvest and Gallagher Innovation Awards. The result is beautiful, clean, true wines that have not impacted negatively on the soil as they have been crafted.
