Colour:
Pale gold.

Aroma:
An intense and complex nose with aromas of white peach, honeysuckle and subtle savoury and bacon oak notes.

Palate:
A deliciously full-bodied and rich wine with complex stone fruit flavours and a touch of spice supported by underlying savoury oak notes and subtle yeast autolysis characters. The palate is elegant and full with firm acidity and a lingering finish.
Ageing potential:
Perfect for drinking immediately this Chardonnay will age well in the bottle with careful cellaring up for to four years from vintage date.

Winemaking:
The fruit was carefully hand-picked and whole bunch pressed to ensure the vineyard characteristics and fruit flavours were preserved. Wine was barrel fermented in 100 per cent American oak (50 per cent new oak barrels, 25 per cent second fill, 25 per cent third fill). Selected yeast strains were used for fermentation. The wine then went through malolactic fermentation followed by 10 months ageing on yeast lees, with regular stirring. Only the best barrels from each batch were selected to use in the final blend. The wine was then blended and carefully prepared for bottling.

Food match:
Perfect with salmon, rich cream-based sauces or roast chicken.

Saint Clair Family Estate

Saint Clair Estate gilt als einer der Pioniere in der Weinregion Marlborough. Judy und Neal Ibbotson legten 1978 die ersten Weinberge an und versorgten zunächst einige Weingüter der Region mit Trauben. Doch schon bald reifte der Gedanke, aus den edlen Früchten selbst Wein herzustellen. Mit Hilfe von Winemaker Matt Thomson, der Erfahrungen in zahlreichen Weingütern in Bordeaux und Italien gesammelt hatte, verwirklichten sie diese Idee in den frühen 1990er Jahren. Schon bald wurden die Saint Clair Weine in nationalen und internationalen Verkostungen prämiert, u.a. auch vom bekanntesten US-Weinmagazin „Wine Spectator“.

Zu den größten Erfolgen zählt zweifellos die Auszeichnung als „Bester neuseeländischer Weinerzeuger des Jahres“, die Saint Clair Estate im Jahre 2005 anlässlich der International Wine und Spirits Cometition verliehen wurde.

Saint Clair Pioneer Block 6 "Oh! Block"

Offiziell benannt nach der Lage in der O'Dwyers Road, enthält der Name „Oh! Block“ auch eine heitere Anspielung auf die ersten Reaktionen der Weintrinker beim Genuss dieses aromatisch vollen Weines: „Oh my goodness what amazing flavours!“.Die Trauben des reinsortigen Sauvignon Blanc stammen aus einem einzigen Weinberg gelegen an der O'Dwyers Road im unteren Rapaura-Gebiet nördlich vom neuseeländischen Blenheim. Dieser Standort hat fruchtbare, tiefgründige Schlickböden. Nach der Ernte wird der Saft sofort abgepresst, sodass der Kontakt mit der Schale gering bleibt. Die Gärung findet mit einer Vielzahl ausgewählter Hefen in Edelstahltanks bei kühlen Temperaturen statt, um Fruchtaroma und Frische zu bewahren.Der Saint Clair Pioneer Block 6 "Oh Block" zeigt sich im Glas in einem blassen Grün. Der Weißwein erreicht die Nase mit einem spektakulären Duft nach intensiven konzentrierten Aromen von Lindenblättern und zerstoßenem Thymian mit krautigen grünen Noten. Am Gaumen dominieren Passionsfrucht- und Grapefruitaromen. Der Abgang ist lang und anhaltend.
