Lake Chalice The Raptor Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2024

Description

Dry, Pineapple, Pomegranate

"Upfront and fabulously aromatic, the bouquet shows green rockmelon, feijoa, fresh fig, and lime peel characters. This leads to a wonderfully flavoursome palate filled with juicy fruit intensity. Splendidly framed by bright acidity, it's delectable and highly enjoyable. At its best: now to 2027" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Feb 2025

"Bright, even, pale yellow. The nose is fresh, with aromas of passionfruit, white currant, tomato vines and minerals. Medium-light bodied, aromas of lime, passionfruit and white currant entwined with tomato vines and stony minerals. Seamless, zingy acidity flows smoothly and effortlessly, unfolds a touch of stony mineral and spice, and lends a crisp, salivating finish. A vibrant, uplifting Sauvignon Blanc" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews, Jun 2025

"Aromas and flavours of fresh gooseberry and grapefruit, a mix of white peach and lemon pith precede flavours of fresh basil and sage then a wet stone mineral quality. Punchy and flavourful with a powerful acid line and lengthy finish. Well made and ready to drink from day of purchase through 2029" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Mar 2025

Ripe tropical aromas with pungent passionfruit and grapefruit followed by green herbal notes. On the palate, an abundance of ripe passionfruit, citrus zest and fresh capsicum. Rich and classically varietal with a lengthy saline finish.
