Impressive purity and an ethereal texture ... A classy Sauvignon."   Description:The Seifried Brightwater Vineyard lies about 15km from the sea (10km from the winery) and is nestled under the Richmond Ranges on the southern end of the Waimea Plains. e temperature at this site fluctuates more than any of our other vineyards due to its distance from the coastline. e Vineyard is exceptionally stony with free draining soils, which is very hard on the farm equipment. e large stones however are vital for holding the warmth of the Nelson sun and for ripening the grapes. Lively fruit characters are evident in fruit harvested from this block. Winemakers Note Aromatic and fresh Sauvignon Blanc flavours were encouraged prior to vintage through careful canopy management. e fruit was de-stemmed and pressed immediately after harvest and a cool fermentation was initiated in stainless steel tanks to retain the clean, fresh aromatic fruit characters. Tasting Note:The 2020 Aotea by the Seifried Family Sauvignon Blanc is pure and varietal. White flesh nectarine, dried hops and passionfruit flavours come through on the nose. the palate is generous with appealing mineral notes and lingering flavours on the palate
