*HALF BOTTLE*
WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
This 2021 Sauvignon Blanc offers an elegant, crisp and beautifully balanced expression of Marlborough, capturing the quintessential nuances, layers and textures of the celebrated region. Classic aromas of ripe pink grapefruit, lime zest and tropical fruits are complemented by suggestions of lemongrass, green pepper and tomato leaf. The palate is crisp and vibrant, lifted by bright, generous citrus notes layered with white peach, guava and passion fruit. Hints of wet river stone, fresh green herbs and mouthwatering acidity add structure and support. Brilliantly concentrated and textured, subtle suggestions of sea spray add to the stylish, lingering finish. A perfect pairing to creamy goat cheese, summer salads, fresh seafood or grilled herbed chicken.
TASTING NOTES:
This wine offers the classic pungency of the Marlborough style. It’s lucid and layered with black currant leaf, gooseberry, waxy citrus fruit and a lick of tomato stem. The palate is slippery and herbal, dry with enough textural weight to pair with soft cheese and salads.
