Greywacke Sauvignon Blanc 2020
The Greywacke Sauvignon Blanc is one of Marlborough's most celebrated examples produced by winemaker Kevin Judd, who arguably put this variety on the map! Imagine yellow-fleshed peaches, rock melon and blackcurrant - a sponge cake with lemon icing, chamomile and hints of rose petal – this is a delicately perfumed and deliciously ripe-fruited interpretation of Marlborough sauvignon blanc. The palate is both subtle and textural, showing considerable ripeness and concentration, with a crisp and long, juicy finish.
