Vine growth began later than previous years and a couple of very cold nights in early October caused a touch of frost damage in the Southern Valleys. Flowering was relatively poor, and it quickly became clear that the harvest would be much smaller than 2022 or 2023. Warm weather began in mid-December and continued right through to March, causing one of the shortest the ripening periods on record. However clear, cold nights retained fruit acidity during ripening. Harvest was short and sharp. The first Sauvignon Blanc was picked from young vines on the 11th March and the last block of Sauvignon from the Upper Awatere was picked on 31st March. All the 2024 fruit was packed with flavour and absolutely no sign of disease due to the amazing growing conditions. It was an ideal vintage!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pf-c\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sc-eONOlN cfGtgs pf-168_ pf-text-1 img-with-text__body\" data-pf-type=\"Paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan data-pf-type=\"Text\" class=\"sc-cHMHbD bwTmDt pf-170_\"\u003eFragrant notes of passionfruit, ruby red grapefruit and white peach jump out of the glass, followed by hints of lemongrass and thyme. This in-your-face drop captures the essence of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. Concentrated citrusy notes of lime zest, passionfruit and white peach combine with a lick of wet stones. The palate is dry and gives way to a lip-smacking, mouth-watering finish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Mission Wine \u0026 Spirits","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48635564228826,"sku":"orr1789825279684","price":12.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0826\/2428\/2842\/files\/jules-taylor-sauvignon-blanc-marlborough-2024-750ml_1.jpg?v=1789825283","url":"https:\/\/bedroomclad.shop\/products\/jules-taylor-sauvignon-blanc-marlborough-2024-750ml","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
