The nose is vivid and layered, offering classic Marlborough aromas of passion-fruit, lime zest, and gooseberry alongside elderflower, jalapeño, and crushed stone. The palate is dry, crisp, and mouth-watering: zesty citrus and tropical fruit ride on electric acidity, with a subtle saline snap and a long, mineral-charged finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNotes\u003c\/b\u003e: Rock Ferry “3rd Rock” Sauvignon Blanc 2023 is certified organic and biodynamically farmed. Fermentation is primarily in stainless steel to retain purity, with a small portion wild-fermented in seasoned French barrels for texture and complexity.
