Vinification Details: Primarily, the grapes that go into Nobilo Sauvignon Blanc are from Wairau Valley, which provide layers of tropical fruit flavors. These combine with grapes from the Awatere Valley which offer balance, with citrus-driven, fresh, crisp and vibrant flavors. Harvesting at night enables the winemakers to preserve the vibrant flavors, aided by a long, slow fermentation at cool temperatures. Keeping each vineyard block separate allows them different parcels to blend into Nobilo’s signature sophisticated style
History: The Nobilo story began in 1943, when our namesake Nikola Nobilo moved from his native Croatia to New Zealand. Combining over 300 years of his families winemaking tradition Nikola was an early champion for New Zealand wine. He recognized the pristine landscape was ideal for Sauvignon Blanc with expansive sunlight valleys, rolling hills and mineral rich soils creating a unique fresh and crisp flavor profile. His focus on quality and a move toward varietal wines helped guide the industry to its success today
