Description
In a nutshell:
Zingy Kiwi freshness with a burst of tropical fruit - that's this Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc in a nutshell.
The lowdown:
This Sauvignon Blanc is a zesty delight. Expect a punch of passionfruit and a hint of grapefruit. The grapes hail from a single, sustainably-minded Dillon's Point vineyard, known for its proximity to the ocean which gives it a subtle brininess. The winemaking itself is kept simple, letting the fruit speak for itself. It's tank fermentated and a given touch of lees-aging for texture. The result? A vibrant Sauvignon Blanc with a crisp, mineral-driven finish. Even the renowned critic Bob Campbell was impressed, giving it 93 points and noting its rich, complex flavours.
The Producer:
Earthsong marks a new chapter for Thistledown Wines, the acclaimed Australian producer with a reputation for crafting pure, expressive wines from special sites and is their first foray into New Zealand's dynamic wine scene. True to their Australian roots, this project embraces sustainable farming and a hands-off approach in the winery. They champion site expression, allowing the unique characteristics of New Zealand's vineyards to come through with posied and elegant wines.
When to drink:
A zesty little sauvignon such as this is a delightful match for a plate of sushi, some steamed dim sum, or simply enjoyed all on its own.
Suitable for Vegans
