The wine is grown on Voyager’s gravelly loam soils. The Sauvignon (74%), from four different blocks with varied microclimates and flavour profiles, brings fresh, crunchy drive with tropical aromas and flavours. The Semillon (26%), sourced from the North Block 10 vineyard planted in 1995, contributes pithy lemon notes, palate weight and structure. Several years of organic farming and Voyager's controlled yields had the grapes in terrific shape for what turned out to be a stellar 2023 season with warm days, cool nights and no heat spikes. The whites displayed beautiful fruit purity and vitality.
A small component (10%) of the Semillon fermented in barrel and aged on its lees, bringing additional complexity and texture to the palate, and the wine still has that clean, snappy close expected of this style.
