Isabel Estate Sauvignon Blanc 2024

Isabel Estate is one of the original Marlborough vineyards and part of the heritage of the Marlborough wine region. Mike Tiller is reported to have seen the land which was to become the Isabel Estate in 1980, when flying over it. He and his wife Robyn built a winery on the site and named it in honour of his mother, Isabel. Their ambition was to produce ultra-premium classic grape varieties that were a true expression of Marlborough.
Throughout the 1980s the couple planted key noble varieties Chardonnay followed by Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc and Riesling. The chosen parcel of land delivered fruit of exceptional quality.

Their small and dedicated team is entirely focused on single estate wines that are grown, produced and bottled within the boundaries of its estate, and represent a true expression of their provenance.

Grown on stony soils in Marlborough’s Wairau Valley, grapes were machine harvested in the cool of night. The juice was gently pressed and fermented in stainless steel using cultured yeast. A short time on fine lees added texture before bottling, allowing the crisp, fruit-forward style to shine through.
