DEEP DOWN BLANC 2025

Winery notes (2025 Vintage)
"Organic, small batch, wild ferment, single vineyard wines crafted with honesty and low or no additions. Wines of transparency and place.

A boutique Marlborough company founded by Clive Dougall and Peter Lorimer who share a love of organics, exceptional wine and a life well lived. We offer Sauvignon Blanc, Blanc, Chardonnay & Pinot Noir (sulphur free) produced with intuition and heart. From land farmed with care, and vineyards managed with respect, in an incredible region deep down in Aotearoa, New Zealand.

Deep Down is all about trusting our intuition, calling time and taking flight."

"Marlborough Blanc translates into a blend of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. In other words, it brings together the region’s undoubted star varieties into a white wine of some energy and interest. White flowers, blossom, honeysuckle, white peach, citrus, almond, herbals all meet on the aroma. Creamy in texture, the palate keeps flavours tight, subtle and bright with some high energy super bright acidity calling the tune. A dusting of almond savouriness is hinted at amid the citrus and white peach, pea shoot and gooseberry. Composed now, would love more time in bottle. Organic and vegan friendly."

Mike Bennie, The Wine Front (2023 Vintage)
"This is tasty and fresh. It sits at a lighter weight, a little juicy, a touch powdery in texture too. Fragrant with faint, red berry fruitiness, green apple, nashi pear, a squeeze of lime and the faintest touch of tonic water. Delightful. A delicate wine with some ease of drinking. Simple, done well."
