Pretty Paddock Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2024

A wine from a single estate owned by the Holdaway family in the Lower Wairau Valley, Marlborough. Part of the AMW Annual Collection 2024 – a selection of the best wines of the vintage. A translucent lemon-green colour in the glass. Intense aromas of blackcurrant, grapefruit, lemongrass, passionfruit, crushed green herbs, pepper and pea pod. Fresh and lush with ripe fruits into the palate that has good weight and length. A touch of stony minerality and crushed shell adds a tart rasp across the tongue. A medium acidity and a little savoury note showing as fennel, crunchy capsicum lead into a finish that shows salinity and persistence. 92pts
