2022 MOMO Made with Organic Grapes Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough

Winemaker's Notes: A refined, yet wholly classic Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough. Densely aromatic, with lush notes of passionfruit, tropical fruits and dried herbs. The palate is vibrant and balanced, yet dry with ripe sherbet-like acidity giving great length.

MOMO, meaning offspring in Maori, offers a first taste of Seresin Estate wines. Located in Marlborough, New Zealand, Maori referred to our region as 'Kei puta te Wairau' or 'the place with the hole in the cloud' referring to the topography of the Wairau Valley. Running west to east towards the coast, we are protected by the Richmond Ranges to the north and the Wither Hills to the south. High sunshine hours, a cool growing season and low rainfall have proven to be an auspicious combination, producing vibrant wines with acidity and depth. Made with organic grapes selected from a small number of growers, MOMO wines are nurtured into the bottle with a gentle hand. The philosophy of minimal intervention but maximum attention is employed throughout the wine-making process resulting in vivid, youthful wines that show honest varietal character and quality.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Wine Enthusiast - "Give this some good swirls in the glass for it to unlock the honeyed pear, pineapple rind, lime pith and snow pea aromas. Once they're out, they're hard not to stop smelling. The pithy palate is equally appealing, from the slippery texture to the bright, lemony thirst-quenching acidity. Drink up."
