Wine Review: This clear and pale straw-colored Sauvignon Blanc from Greywacke opens with a fragrant yellow grapefruit and lime zest bouquet with hints of ginger and sea spray. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with plus acidity. The mouthfeel is round, bright, zesty, and quite flavorful. The flavor profile is a bold white grapefruit and lime blend with notes of ginger and white pepper. I also detected hints of chalky minerality, green tea and nectarine. The finish is dry, and its flavors and acidity linger and last for a very long time. If you liked the 2024 vintage, you would like this one as well. They are very similar wines. I would serve this Sauvignon Blanc slightly chilled with a grilled swordfish sandwich on a hot summer day. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: This wine opens with aromatic herbs with soft, yellow peach, crunchy pear and a squeeze of juicy lime, apricot sponge cake and custard tarts. A sweet-scented array of ripe deliciousness. On the palate, flavors of honeydew melon and white nectarine mingle with savory notes of crushed seashells and a hint of chalky minerality. A fruit-driven Marlborough style with generosity and weight, it delivers a luscious sense of ripeness that finishes with a mouthwatering lemon-sherbet zing.
