Rimapere 'Plot 101' Sauvignon Blanc 2021

The Rimapere vineyard is ideally located in the prestigious Rapaura are of Marlborough and benefits from an exceptional terroir. 'Plot 101' refers to the eponymous parcel of this vineyard with an exceptionally preserved and magical setting. Benefiting from a terroir of rare intensity, the grapes of this plot selection are hand-picked before being delicately pressed and then aged on lees. Pale straw in colour the Plot 101 Sauvignon Blanc displays distinct lime and lemon notes, developing with fragrant white flower aromas, gentle oak complexities with a creamy “sur lies” overlay. The palate has an elegant texture, rich lemon and grapefruit flavours and long persistent finish.

Vintage Availability

We endeavour to display accurate and current vintages on all our wines listed on the website; however, from time to time stocks of the vintage listed do become exhausted. If this is the case with your order we will always contact you to recommend another vintage of the same wine, if it is still available. If the vintage of a wine is important to you then please leave a note at checkout advising us of this. 

 

Stock Availability

As we are retail stockists, selling from our Ledston shop as well as online, it makes it difficult for us to show a 'real-time' inventory of our wines and spirits online. As such, very occasionally, a wine may be out of stock that the website has allowed you to order.

To ensure a timely delivery, we are happy to substitute your order with a similar wine of equal or higher value and at no additional cost to you!

If this is not an acceptable solution please advise us in the 'Add A Comment' section at the checkout.

"Bright green-gold in colour, its aromas are haunting, layered and subtle, without overt grassiness or passionfruit extravagance; look instead for the soft leafiness of a sunlit copse in spring. It’s fresh, bright and urgent on the palate, but once again the primary notes are muted to benefit texture and perspective, sinew and line. The memorable acids are rounded, ripe and resonant in this wholly successful Sauvignon. "
