Saint Clair Wairau Reserve Sauvignon Blanc 2023"From Marlborough's largest family owned producer, this pungent wine is grown in the cooler, coastal end of Wairau Valley. Intensely varietal, it is medium to full bodied, penetrating and finely poised. It has vigorous passionfruit and green capsicum flavours, a hint of saltiness and a crisp, dry, lingering finish" Michael Cooper, Nov 2024 "Bright, even, pale yellow.

"From Marlborough's largest family-owned producer, this pungent wine is grown in the cooler, coastal end of Wairau Valley. Intensely varietal, it is medium-to-full-bodied, penetrating and finely poised. It has vigorous passionfruit and green capsicum flavours, a hint of saltiness and a crisp, dry, lingering finish" Michael Cooper, Nov 2024

"Bright, even, pale yellow. The nose is expressive with aromas of fresh gooseberry, white currant, green mango, nettle and sea minerals. Medium-light bodied, aromas of gooseberry, white currant and green mango form a taut core, unfolding kaffir lime, nettle, elderflower and sea salt. Delicately textured phenolics provide substance and silkiness to the mouthfeel. Zingy acidity persists to a crisp, lingering with saline moreishness. A well-made, sophisticated Sauvignon Blanc shows refined layers and purity" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews, Jan 2024

"Gently aromatic showing strong varietal definition and impressive purity with lemongrass, citrus/lime, gooseberry and green capsicum. Taut, refined wine with mouth-watering tension" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, The Real Review, Feb 2024
