The 2023 Sauvignon Blanc is light in body but dense in concentration because of low yields. It's almost silvery in color and restrained due to hand-picking, leading to pure grapefruit, passion fruit and nectarine, all delivered with focus and punch. The finish is long, precise and sinewy. $23.00 (Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous, July 2024) — 14 days ago

Very citrusy. A bit acidic, but one of my favorite Sauvignon Blancs. Great for summer. — 9 days ago

Stunning SB: more tropical on the nose, vivid passion fruit, guava but great complexity in that it also had that classic gooseberry & grassiness, some mineral too. Really wild, zesty acidity, and a delight to drink. Went down way too quickly! — a month ago

Definitely does not remind me of a typical NZ SB. Not as vibrant but plenty of acidity to go around. Has a flinty side to it. — 6 days ago
