Whitehaven, Marlborough (New Zealand) Sauvignon Blanc 2016

This is classic Marlborough Sauvignon, with all of the flashy aromatics one would expect, but no over-the-top pungency.  Similarly, on the palate, there’s exciting grapefruit and lime fruit and lots of zesty acidity, but no sourness and no overtly sugary sweetness.  Very well crafted in a manner that was respectful of perfectly ripened fruit.  A Double Gold award winner at the 2017 Toast of the Coast Wine Competition.
