2023 Jules Taylor Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc

The sauvignon grapes for this wine were grown in the sub-regions of Taylor Pass, Lower Wairau, Hawkesbury and Awatere in Marlborough. Each parcel was individually tended throughout the growing season to ensure the grapes reached their optimum maturity. With a dedicated harvesting team, they were able to harvest each parcel individually as soon as the fruit was ripe and the flavours were perfect. At the winery, the grapes were pressed into stainless steel tanks for cold settling, the juice was then allowed to ferment gently at cool temperatures to enhance the aromas and flavours of the wine. The wine was then left on the lees for a short period before being pumped over. Then came the fun part; each batch was tasted and the final blend was created! The resulting wine was then cold stabilised, filtered, bottled and sealed with a screw cap to ensure perfect freshness.

In the glass, this Jules Taylor MARLBOROUGH SAUVIGNON BLANC is very pale yellow in colour with explosive aromas of passion fruit, grapefruit, lemon peel and lemon zest on the nose followed by hints of basil and thyme. This expressive wine captures the essence of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. Ripe, exuberant citrus and passion fruit flavours combine with a hint of wet stones. The palate is dry, complex and powerful, ending with a concentrated, mouthwatering finish.

Delicious with fresh sourdough bread dipped in good quality olive oil. As a main course, a crispy fried snapper fillet with warm Puy lentils and a spicy lemon sauce is an excellent choice.

ABOUT JULES TAYLOR

In 2001, Jules Taylor Wines began as a small sideline with just 200 cases. Five years, two children and many, many late nights later, George and Jules made the nerve-wracking decision to risk it all, quit their day jobs and give their dream a shot. Today, Jules makes her harvest decisions in the vineyard, based purely on taste rather than lab analysis. Regardless of cost, Jules will only release a wine when she is completely satisfied that it has met her standards. Jules left her corporate winemaking career to give her the freedom to make wines the way she thinks they should be made. She makes just one batch of each wine per harvest. So enjoy it while it lasts. When it’s gone, it’s gone. Read more under the Tab: Winery
