7 Rows Ben Nevis Sauvignon Blanc

Please note: Award stickers are applied at the producer's discretion and may not be present on all bottles.

Each year, we select the finest Sauvignon Blanc parcels of which a portion is fermented and matured in 500L French oak barrels. We then only select the best of these barrels for Lomond’s Seven Rows range. The 2024 Ben Nevis is a blend consisting of the finest barrels of our Single Vineyard Pincushion and Sugarbush Sauvignon Blanc. Grapes are gently pressed, with the clear juice racked for fermentation. Fermentation begins in stainless steel, and once active, a portion is transferred to 500L French oak barrels to complete fermentation and mature for eight months under temperature-controlled conditions.

We harvest not by block, but per soil type. This ensures optimum ripeness and preserving each section's unique flavours. We can accurately identify the distinctive characteristics that terroir imparts. Utilising satellite imagery and boots on the ground, we monitor vigour, growth and ripeness. Varying terroir creates microclimates within each vineyard block. Within each block there are rows of vines which have flavour compounds which are exceptional. These rows are vinified separately and tasted over and over again in the pursuit of perfection.
