Gravitas has a policy of handpicking all grapes. Careful leaf plucking, shoot thinning and removal of excess grape bunches by hand during vintage keeps the yields very, very low (25-50% of the regional average, depending on the vineyard block) A range of 6 clones/rootstock combinations were picked at separate times, whole bunch pressed for gentle extraction, fermented individually in tank at moderate temperatures so that the fruit characters were maintained. The wines were left sur lie for three to four months, to break down the yeast cells, adding luxurious flavours and palate textures to the final wine. A small percentage of juice was fermented warm in small oak barrels to help add further texture and length. Alcohol 13.5%
  One of the most concentrated NZ Sauvignon Blancs, with one of the longest finishes, a set of tastes and aromas that continues into infinite. The bouquet transforms from gooseberries to citrus and grapefruit. The unique Gravitas vineyards have a terroir that bring a slight mineral note to this wine, unusual for Marlborough. Suggestion of oak though none used, from keeping the wine on lees for several months. “One of the most powerful and intense Marlborough Sauvignon Blancs I've ever tasted.
