Framingham’s whites always have a strong textural element to them, thanks in part to the use of a little skin maceration and barrel aging in oak and acacia. Straightforward but likable, their latest Sauvignon is a medley of bright grapefruit, pineapple, and grass, and snow pea characters, ensconced in a creamy texture and lifted by crunchy acidity and a long, fruit-filled finish. Producer Information Framingham Wines is located in the Wairau Valley in New Zealand’s iconic Marlborough region. Its focus is on aromatic white grape varieties like Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris and Viognier, from which it makes a range of varietal and blended wines. The company was first established in the early 90’s, releasing its first vintage in 1994. The vineyard has some of the oldest Riesling vines in Marlborough, dating back 30 years and grafted onto phylloxera-resistant rootstock on well-drained soils of stone and silt. The Wairau Valley’s warm days and cool nights are excellent for Riesling, which often takes a back seat to Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. Framingham makes a range of wines from Riesling, ranging from dry to sweet, botrytis-affected wines. Framingham’s top tier is its F-Series range, which includes wines made in Auslese and Trockenbeerenauslese styles, as well as a Vendanges Tardives-styled Gewürztraminer. The standard range includes several varietal wines, including a couple of Pinot Noir-based wines and a Montepulciano. Framingham Wines was bought by Pernod Ricard in 2004 and then sold to the Portuguese company Sogrape in 2007.
