Aroma: Citrus, sweet kaffir lime with hints of fresh herbs.
Palate: Juicy and crisp, this wine is layered with stone fruit giving generous length of flavour.
Winemaking
Harvested at peak flavour maturity from our estate and grower vineyards across Marlborough. Gentle juice extraction, cold settled and fermented in stainless steel tanks with a range of aromatic yeasts.
Vineyard
Varying depth of alluvial silt loam over gravel, well drained.
Our Forest & Bird Mission
It’s been an incredible journey to nurture and restore the spring-fed native wetland at our ‘Area H’ vineyard over the past few years – now a sanctuary for countless native trees, birds and other wildlife. This year we’re on a mission to take the initiative further than our own backyard!
Satellite + Forest & Bird
We are all satellites drifting around a beautiful planet. It’s important that we protect it! We’ve aligned Satellite Sauvignon Blanc with Forest & Bird to help give nature a voice. Now you can enjoy a gold medal wine while supporting Forest & Bird too!
