Only wines that meet AMW\u2019s stringent certification process carry the AMW mark, guaranteeing 100% Marlborough origin, certified sustainable vineyards, and exclusive bottling in New Zealand.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p>The 2024 collection was judged by three people \u2013 Stephen Wong MW, Elaine Chukan Brown (Wine Enthusiast), and Paul Stringer (Moore Wilson), bringing global expertise across education, media, on-trade, and retail sectors. The panel evaluated over 75 current vintage Sauvignon Blancs.<\/p><p>With the different sub-regions of Marlborough now becoming recognised (and recognisable if tasted) it was good, from my perspective, to try a box of wines with a wide span of styles and (as a family member says) \u2018taste-able sensations\u2019. Part of the PR that came out with the release of the wines talked of \u201ca top 12 that reflects the region\u2019s unique vineyard sites and winemaking styles\u201d. I\u2019m sure the intention wasn\u2019t deliberately to \u2018represent Marlborough\u2019 across those varied expressions, but that, to my mind, is what has ended up in the box here &#8211; and I\u2019m all good with that.

A delicious green tartness and \u2018good bitterness\u2019 is apparent immediately, balancing with some ripe tropical flavours.
