Vintage Notes – 2023 was a very cool vintage with intermittent rainfall, prolonging the ripening period, enabling good fruit flavor development without high sugars. The Longview team worked very hard in the vineyard ensuring good airflow and bunch positioning to help ripen evenly.

Most varietals were harvested much later than most years however this ensured fruit flavour and balance. Whilst the yield was down across the board, 2023 will be remembered as an excellent vintage which should age magnificently.

Vineyard & Winemaking Notes – Four blocks located at the highest altitude at Longview were used for ‘Whippet’ Sauvignon Blanc 2023. All blocks were planted on own roots in 1997 and 1998 and pruned differently to allow us a wide array of blending options.

The Sauvignon Blanc vines are shoot-thinned, then bunch thinned to ensure yield management and early fruit flavour development. Fruit is crushed, chilled and sees slight skin contact for maximum flavour extraction. Cool fermentation in stainless-steel tanks before being blended and bottled.
