Kekerengu, located 70km south of Blenheim, is a unique corner of the Marlborough Geographical Appellation. This vineyard, situated virtually next to the sea, boasts a distinctive soil structure and a microclimate like no other in Marlborough, producing complex and intriguing wines.

The 2023 harvest was a season marked by collectiveness, collaboration, tranquility, and winemaking finesse. It began on a strong note with excellent flowering, hinting at the potential for an abundant crop. The classic Marlborough summer brought consistent days without excessive heat and slightly lower than average sunshine. Light yet persistent rain events during berry maturation demanded focused vineyard management to preserve healthy fruit. This challenge was skillfully met across the vineyards, yielding beautifully clean fruit ready for a promising harvest.

In the winery, a talented and experienced team seized the opportunity to showcase their skills, collaborate, and share expertise, allowing the true essence of Marlborough fruit to shine. The grapes were machine-harvested and immediately pressed in the cool of the night. The juice was maintained at cool temperatures to preserve the delicate aromatics. Cleared juice was then fermented to dryness at cool temperatures with specifically selected yeasts. The finest tanks were chosen for blending, creating a wonderful fresh expression for bottling.

The 2023 Allan Scott Black Label Kekerengu Sauvignon Blanc is fresh, zesty, juicy, and full-bodied. It showcases ripe tropical fruit, a flinty palate, and finishes with a mouthwatering, crisp, sea-salted herbaceousness. This wine is unfiltered and unfined, so some beneficial sediment may remain, adding to its unique character and charm.
