- New Zealand → Craft Series Pride and Glory Sauvignon Blanc 2016
Region: New Zealand, Marlborough
Grape variety: Sauvignon Blanc
Tasting notes: There is a subtle oak component to this wine, hinting at toast and vanilla, but the main thrust of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc remains intact, driving forward with sweaty, pungent notes, prickly pear and pink grapefruit. The texture, palate weight and length of flavour this wine delivers are truly exciting. This wine is will enhance dishes devoted to seafood, fresh herbs and butter!
Review: Robert Parker - 93 Points: 'The highest ever score given to a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc true to its origins, flavours of citrus and tropical fruits are underpinned by soft acidity and creamy mouthfeel.'
