Rebecca Gibb MW writes: The 2023 Sauvignon Blanc may not be most aromatic example of the variety you'll ever encounter, but it is pretty, elegant and balanced, which is more challenging to achieve. It offers delicate, pure flavors of elderflower and pear. While fairly light in body, it provides a pleasurable, succulent juiciness on the mid-palate that gives you something to get your teeth into. Drinking 2024 - 2027. - Vinous 91
James Suckling writes: Fragrant aromas of candied citrus, guava and orange blossoms followed by nettles, sage and box trees. Medium-bodied, mouthwatering acidity. Vibrant and aromatic. Drink now. Screw cap. - James Suckling 92
Winemaker Notes:
Aromas of cassis and passionfruit are first to emerge, with guava, crisp pear and white peach adding a delicious intricacy. On the palate, it is generous yet refreshing, with ripe pineapple and a lime sherbet zing, layered with elderflower and hints of citrus blossom. A classic example of Greywacke’s interpretation of the famous Marlborough style - ripe, textural and scruptious, with the volume turned well down. Winemaker Description.
