Paddy Borthwick
Wairarapa Sauvignon Blanc
Wairarapa, North Island, New Zealand
The wine I opened is the 2021 Paddy Borthwick Sauvignon Blanc from Wairarapa, Gladstone New Zealand.
On the nose there is grapefruit, lime, white peach, mango, grass, herbal notes, minerality and a bit of flint.
On the palate there is grapefruit, lime, white peach, herbaceous and minerality.
This is a beautiful well rounded medium bodied wine with a clean fresh mouthfeel medium + mouthwatering acidity that leaves you with a long citrus mineral finish. Enjoy your wines this weekend and be sure to try something different. Please stay safe and healthy. Nostrovia! 🥂🥂🥂🥂

1. Novellum,ridiculous for $10.00
2. Substance
3. This one
4. Matias Santa Lucia Highlands
But basically splitting hairs on all of them,
Matias is the most complex.

Sweet, flowery bouquet, with a salty, briny aftertaste. Best if paired with clean, fresh, seafood (oysters, poached shrimp, etc.).

Golden delicious apple, grassy, but not too much. A bit creamy/buttery. Not as tropical fruit-forward as a lot of NZ sauv Blancs but still very nice.
