$14, 5 stars, 91 points, marlborough, new zealand, Sauvignon blanc
Very pale lemon colored with titanium highlights and a watery sheen (13% ABV). The nose has intense aromas of lime zest, lime, cut grass, asparagus, white blossom, orange blossom, hints of peach, grapefruit and sea spray. The palate is dry with high acidity and a medium (-) body. The citrus driven nose is echoed on the palate with some green notes, stone fruit and florals. It’s a flavor driven wine for sure- delicious and refreshing with the cutting acidity. The finish is quite long and tangy. I paid $14 for this bottle that gets 91 points from me making it a 5 star effort to drink in the near term. I’m frying up some Mahi Mahi and roasted veggies to pair. Salut….
