It has been awhile since I have had a good Sauvignon Blanc and tonight is one of those nights. I have opened the 2017 Wither Hills Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough New Zealand.

A beautiful expression of Sauvignon Blanc on the nose is I am getting lime, kiwi fruit, nectarine, guava, papaya, herbs and wet concrete.

The palate brings out notes of lime, green apple, white peach, grapefruit, lemongrass, and crushed stone.

This wine is medium bodied with medium + acidity and that leads into crisp clean chalky finish. The weekend is on us and it looks to be a good one so please be safe and have fun. Nostrovia! 🥂🥂🥂🥂

Fine, light-bodied New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, with citrus and minerality, served at seafood dinner with friends at home in Back Bay

Wife says 9.3. Tart like Granny Smith apples, has a bright finish.

Lovely bright citrus, gooseberry, and crunchy green papaya. Aging on lees takes away some of the sharp edges and lends a welcome weight on the palate.
