WINE MAKING PROCESS
The King's Bay Sauvignon Blanc is produced using 100% Sauvignon Blanc grapes from Marlborough. The winemaking process typically involves fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats to preserve aromatics. Following fermentation, the wine is aged in stainless steel to maintain its freshness and varietal character. Harvests are timed to optimize flavor development while retaining acidity, reflecting a focus on producing a vibrant and characteristic Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc.
