94pts Wine Advocate
The 2024 Single Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc leads with a complex nose of sweet pea, cassis bramble, gooseberry, elderflower, preserved citrus and brine. In the mouth, the wine is concentrated and detailed, with fresh energy and zip ensconced in textural folds of phenolics. This is a gorgeous wine and comes highly recommended. 13.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.
92pts James Suckling
Aromas of bell peppers, lemons and cut grass. The light-bodied palate shows tightly wound acidity, giving notes of passion fruit, lime curd and river stones. Nicely constructed with a mineral edge.
90pts Vinous
The 2024 Sauvignon Blanc Single Vineyard is dry, crisp and bright with mouthwatering acidity. Clean, zesty and athletic, this has no shortage of pizzazz. There are classically Marlborough tropical and passion fruit characters here, but they're all restrained into a compact, concentrated core, which has line and length.
Winemaker Notes
Pale straw in color. Lifted and pure aromas of fresh passionfruit, ripe citrus and lime. Notes of dried herbs, lemongrass, papaya and jalapeno add pungency and intensity to the aromatics. Powerful, tight and elegant. This wine displays intense ripe fruit flavors of passionfruit juice and white peach, with citrus notes of lime and mandarin pith. The palate has intense concentration and generous weight, balanced by an underlying minerality and tight structure to shape a wine with lively tension and textural balance.
