The 2021 Giesen Organic Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc has wonderful aromas of passionfruit, guava, grapefruit, lemon, and elderflower. On the palate, tropical fruit flavours give way to subtle citrus notes of lemon and lime. This wine is generous and complex, with bright acidity supporting its long finish.

To create an organic Sauvignon Blanc with intense flavour and texture our winemakers separated the juice into three parcels and treated each one differently. One was fermented clean and bright to create intense aromatics, the second received a wild fermentation which adds texture and depth of flavour and the final component was fermented in oak barrels to create a wine with rich mouth-feel. The winemakers then tasted each parcel and blended to create an organic wine of intense aromatics and generous flavour and length.
