Tiraki, meaning ‘clearing of the sky’ in Māori, embodies a rich legacy rooted in Ngāi Tahu Māori heritage and the breathtaking Marlborough region of New Zealand. The Hammond family farm, with a proud history spanning five generations has always been a cornerstone of our identity. Founded by the three Hammond siblings and a friend with a deep connection to the land, Tiraki was born from a lifelong passion for nature, adventure, and the spirit of whānau (family). Their vineyards, nestled in the Wairau Valley, benefit from the unique climate created by the protective mountain ranges, offering the perfect conditions for low-intervention wines. A defining event for Tiraki was their achievement as the first wine brand in New Zealand to attain B Corp certification, underscoring their dedication to social and environmental responsibility. Tiraki’s commitment to sustainability includes native plantings along waterways and transitioning to organic farming methods.
The fruit for the Sauvignon Blanc is sourced from the Oddstone vineyard, on free draining alluvial soils with a vines aged 12-30 years. Picking the fruit in the cool of the early morning allows them to retain aromatic flavour precursors. The harvested grapes were gently pressed to tank to cold settle, with the clear juice then being fermented in stainless steel tanks at low temperatures with selected yeast strains designed to enhance aromatic intensity. 18% of the wine was wild fermented in a mixture of oak puncheons and stainless steel tanks, helping to add complexity, weight and texture. Once blended the wine was aged on light lees in tank for 5 months.
Passionfruit, guava, peach, grapefruit and melon aromas make this a concentrated and classy Sauvignon Blanc. The palate shows pure tropical fruit notes giving the wine weight and a textural element adds complexity, leaving a long lingering finish.
