Palliser Estate Martinborough Sauvignon Blanc 2023
Reviews
Sam Kim, Wine Orbit: 94/100. It's fabulously aromatic on the nose, showing green rockmelon, feijoa, white flesh stone fruit and lemon zest aromas, followed by a wonderfully flavoursome palate offering excellent fruit purity with juicy acidity. Varietally expensive with terrific intensity, finishing long and satisfying. At its best: now to 2029.
Cameron Douglas MS: 93/100. Aromas of fresh white tropical fruits with a lick of cape gooseberry, fresh herbs and a core of crushed stone minerality. Crisp, saline refreshing and dry on the palate. Flavours of citrus then peach, mineral then tropical fruits, a fine leesy spice quality and youthful vibrant finish. Best drinking from late 2023 through 2029.
Bob Campbell, MW (The Real Review): 91/100. Bright, punchy sauvignon with tropical fruit/passionfruit, tangy lime, gooseberry flavours and a backbone of assertive, fruity acidity. Strong varietal wine with a truly Martinborough style.
Tasting note
Pale lemon, perfect clarity. Welcome to the Hotel Tropicana; with a stunning array of passion fruit, guava, gooseberry and melon. Bone dry with a musky, spicy palate. Intensely concentrated and bursting with tropical fruit. A fine, lacy acidity drives the long, crisp finish.
