Craggy Range, Martinborough (New Zealand) Sauvignon Blanc 2023

Apr 2, 2024

By Rebecca Murphy

 Craggy Range has two wineries located in Hawkes Bay on the north island of New Zealand: Gimblett Gravels Winery and Giants Winery.  Ben Tombs, Chief Winemaker, is responsible for this elegant pale-yellow wine, infused with delicate citrus aromas and hints of orange and grapefruit zest and a light herbal note.  It is lean and crisp in the mouth displaying flavors of Meyer lemon, grapefruit, lime and a bit of peach.  If you ever have the opportunity to visit the area, Craggy Range also has Guest Cottages and a restaurant at the at the Giants Winery which my husband and I highly recommend from our travels there in 2014.
