Sauvignon Blanc, Wild Rock Marlborough New Zealand 202
Pale lemon straw. Potentially the greatest release of this wine to date. The nose is abundant with kaffir lime leaf and subtle tropical notes. This has aromas of guavas, lemons, juniper berries, sliced green apples and wet stones. Clean and clear with a medium body and vibrant acidity. The palate is electric. The hallmark saline acid of 'Te Muna' and a pithiness to the fruit giving succulence and enhanced drinkability.
Expect Vibrant lime and tropical fruit flavours with some subtle melon, jalapeño pepper and herbal nuances tucked beneath. The palate offers a lovely textural appeal that tempers the citrusy crunch of acidity. There’s nice fruit concentration and an impressive, long finish.
