"Offering impressive fruit purity and power, it's instantly appealing with green rockmelon, passionfruit, kiwifruit and kaffir lime notes on the nose, followed by a concentrated palate delivering excellent weight and juicy fruit intensity. Wonderfully fruited and hugely appealing" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jul 2021
"Bright, pale yellow, even colour throughout. The nose is softly full and lifted, nuances of lime, fresh-cut herbs, melded with gooseberries, guava and white spice. Medium-light bodied, aromas of guava, lime, mango layers entwined white spice and cut herbs. The flavours have intensity and depth, support by well-balanced lively acidity. Fine-textured, chalky phenolic carry a hint of sea salt linger to linearity. This is a refined Sauvignon Blanc with well-defined layers of tropical fruit, herbs and spices. Match with sweet & sour fish and steamed mussels over the next 3-4 years" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Wine Reviews, Aug 2021
"Full-bodied, almost luscious sauvignon blanc with passionfruit, guava, struck-flint, melon and lime flavours supported by fruity acidity and fine, peppery tannins" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Aug 2021
This wine was created to redefine the Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc style. A real crowd pleaser, it is loved for its juicy, ripe flavours and restrained acidity. Each glass is brimming with succulent flavours of passionfruit, tropical fruit and crushed black currant leaf. The fruit flavour is balanced with crisp acidity and a distinct salty minerality, which combine to create a mouth-watering finish.

The powerfully expressed palate offers terrific fruit purity and persistency together with juicy fruit flavours and vibrant acidity, finishing gorgeously long and delicious" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jul 2021

Generous, bright aromas of floral citrus, fresh passionfruit, melon, spice and a nettly, crushed herb fragrance. The palate has an appealing breadth, a succulent core of soft citrus and rock melon suggestive of sweetness in spite of being genuinely dry in style. A fine, mineral acidity balances and refreshes this fruit-rich, almost creamy mouthfeel which finishes with a hint of aromatic spice.

1 x Craggy Range Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2020
AWARDED 18.5/20 POINTS: Joelle Thomson
"Flinty, refreshing style. This Marlborough example is from an outstanding vintage for high quality dry whites. Super-fresh citrus flavours and intense, zingy acidity ad the X-factor to this lively white" Joelle Thomson
Pale lime to pale straw. An abundance of fresh passionfruit pulp and freshly grated lemon zest lift from the glass. The palate has a phenomenal acid drive. There is a concentration of ripe fruit here only seen in the best of years but enough minerality to give the wine complex and intrigue- one of their best releases to date.
Food Pairing: Sashimi, bluff oysters and trout risotto.
