Starborough - Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough 2023 is produced in California with fruit sourced from vineyards selected for balance and varietal clarity. Hand harvesting and small‑lot vinification allow careful control of fermentations, with an emphasis on clean extraction and preservation of fruit integrity.

Fermentation is conducted in stainless steel or small open‑top tanks, depending on the varietal, with pump‑overs or punch‑downs managed to achieve structure without harshness. Aging takes place in a mix of French and American oak barrels, where time in wood refines texture and brings added complexity without masking the grape’s natural profile.

Each vintage reflects a commitment to sustainable vineyard practices and precise cellar work, yielding a wine that stands as a faithful expression of both varietal and region.

Starborough

Starborough is a wine brand from the Marlborough region of New Zealand, best known for its Sauvignon Blanc. The brand's identity is deeply rooted in the concept of "Sons of Soil," a tribute to the family farming heritage that underpins the winery. The story begins with William Jones, who came to New Zealand in search of gold in 1864. Although he didn't find riches in gold, he discovered that the Marlborough soil was just as valuable for farming, a legacy that has been carried on by his family for four generations.

The brand's philosophy is to produce wines that are a pure and authentic expression of the Marlborough terroir. They emphasize the lush, green landscape of the Awatere and Wairau Valleys, which are tucked between mountains and the coast. This unique environment of cool nights and sunny days contributes to the distinctively crisp and zesty taste of their wines.

While Sauvignon Blanc is their flagship product, the brand also produces other wines such as Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, and Pinot Noir. Each of these wines is crafted to reflect the unique character of the region. The overall brand message is one of refreshing, easy-going moments, celebrating the connection to the land and the simple pleasure of a well-made wine.
