The Aotea by the Seifried Family Nelson Sauvignon Blanc is simply bursting with flavour and punch. Its lightly aromatic with crushed hops, fresh verbena and ripe passionfruit. The palate is generously flavoursome with gorgeous mineral backbone to balance the succulent ripe tropical fruit flavours.
Our 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. The temperature at this site fluctuates more than any of our other vineyards due to its distance from the coastline. The Vineyard is exceptionally stony with free draining soils, which is very hard on the farm equipment. The 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. Our Rabbit Island Vineyards are situated on a wide river Flat. The soil is gravelly sandy loam which is very sandy and free draining. These vineyards are about 1.5 kilometres from the sea which helps moderate temperatures.
