A pale lemon-gold in the glass; bright, with an elegant nose filled with mandarin, golden apple, freshly mown grass, lemon pith, blackcurrant and saline sea-breeze. Medium-bodied with great weight through the palate. Juicy, fresh and a lively acidity is balanced with the sweet fruit and a just off-dry edge. Crunchy and concentrated, with passionfruit, pink grapefruit, pineapple and nectarine and just a kick of herbal – tarragon and sorrel. A softer, unctuous texture at the back, into a complex, drying, mineral-flecked finish. 89pts.
Hawkesbridge Reserve Sauvignon Blanc 2020
