After an exceptionally cool ripening period the grapes were picked in immaculate condition in late March. Attention to detail in the vineyard meant that our grapes escaped the rot that has been so well documented as a feature of so many other vineyards. In fact the natural acidity and pH has provided the platform for terrific balance and freshness. No acid has been added at any stage of production. After a cool fermentation, the wine settled and was then cold-filtered before bottling on 9th May, not even two months after harvesting. 2011 LuLu Sauvignon Blanc showcases the vibrancy of this variety with our single vineyard expression and racy acidity. This wine illustrates our belief that great wine is expression of single vineyard and vintage.
