Terroir, History & Acclaim
Critical Recognition:
James Suckling 90 pts
- 90 Points - James Suckling: Juicy and fruit-driven with notes of limes, bell peppers and herbs on the nose, following through to a medium body with fresh acidity. Laid-back and delicious. Sustainable. Drink now. Screw cap.
- The Renowned Marlborough Terroir: Sourced from vineyard sites across Marlborough's Wairau and Awatere Valleys, this classic Sauvignon Blanc balances the tropical fruit intensity of the warmer Wairau soils with the crisp, flinty mineral edge of the cooler Awatere terraces.
- A Global Benchmark for Sauvignon Blanc: Founded in 1996, Kim Crawford played a defining role in launching New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc onto the world stage, remaining the global gold standard for clean, fruit-driven purity.
Highlights
- 100% Sauvignon Blanc harvested from prime vineyard sites across Marlborough, New Zealand.
- Fermented entirely in temperature-controlled stainless steel to preserve vivid aromatic intensity.
- A vibrant 2025 release bursting with tropical passion fruit, lime zest, and herbal freshness.
Tasting Notes
- Appearance: Pale straw-yellow with luminous green reflections.
- Nose: Intensely fragrant and lifted. It opens with aromas of passion fruit, fresh guava, and pink grapefruit, layered with notes of lemongrass, cut grass, and lime rind.
- Palate: Dry, light-to-medium-bodied, and mouth-watering. The entry brings an explosion of vibrant citrus and tropical stone fruit, driven by electric natural acidity into a clean, zesty finish.
Serving Suggestion
- Temperature: Serve well-chilled at 7–10°C to highlight its bright citrus drive and lively aromatics.
- Decanting: No decanting needed; open and enjoy fresh. Best enjoyed young within 1 to 3 years of harvest.
- Western Pairing: Fresh oysters on the half shell, goat cheese crostini, grilled asparagus, seared scallops, or light summer salads.
- Asian Pairing: Thai green curry, Vietnamese fresh spring rolls (Gỏi cuốn), steamed fish with ginger and spring onion, or spicy papaya salad.
