Region: Wither Hills, Marlborough, New Zealand

Grape Variety: Sauvignon Blanc

It has been a while since we shined the spotlight on this estate, one of our favorites from Marlborough. The new vintage is incredible and worth a look if you love the category. This one hits you first with notes of yellow grapefruit and tomatillo, that give way to riper scents of slightly under ripe pineapple, kiwi, and tangerine. In the mouth this wine has a very nice plump sense to the fruit that is quickly framed by a mineral-like quality that persists to the finish. This is a great wine to serve without food but will also work great with grilled Mahi tacos, smoked salmon quiche, or grilled chicken breasts with peach salsa.
