Butterworth Layline Martinborough Sauvignon Blanc 2022"Bright, even, pale yellow. The nose is softly full, with aromas of sweet, tropical fruit, elderflower and a hint of grassy nuance. Medium light bodied, aromas of guava and passionfruit entwined with elderflower, lime zest, grass and saline. Fine textured phenolics fill the palate and lend an almost unctuous mouthfeel; fresh acidity flows smoothly with herbaceous notes to a dry, crisp finish. This Sauvignon Blanc possesses a fresh, textural line with
"Bright, even, pale yellow. The nose is softly full, with aromas of sweet, tropical fruit, elderflower and a hint of grassy nuance.

"Drinking well in its youth, this wine was made from local growers’ grapes. Light lemon/green, it is fresh and lively, in a medium-bodied style with tropical fruit flavours to the fore, gentle herbal notes, crisp acidity and very good depth" Winestate Magazine, Jan 2023
Bright gold green hue. A medley of passionfruit, mango, elderflower, and grapefruit leap from the glass. Undertones of freshly crushed sage and lemon-thyme round off the beautiful aroma.
The soils of the Martinborough Terraces are free-draining alluvial gravel, which are rich in minerals making it ideal for growing grapes. The climate of Martinborough is similar to Burgundy, being only slightly cooler due to higher altitude, but with long cool summers and low rainfall providing the optimum long ripening conditions for grapes.
This wine is sourced from the Te Muna Valley six kilometres from the Martinborough township. The vines are tended by hand and are sustainably grown. The 2022 season was highlighted by warm days, cool nights and excellent growing conditions. The vines produced intensely low cropped, flavoured fruit.
The grapes harvested, then pressed and left to settle overnight. The juice was fermented cool in stainless steel to preserve the fruit flavours. The ferment was completed, then the wine racked off heavy lees to preserve the purity of the fruit, with the light lees to give the wine some roundness. The wine was stabilised and gently filtered for clarity. No fining agents were added.
Food Pairing: Pure, linear, with the Te Muna Valley acid drive, but with salivating texture in the mid-palate makes this wine the perfect accompaniment to all seafoods.
