The 2023 Otira Glacial Stones Sauvignon Blanc is texturally sophisticated, pure and energetic, with back-palate-weighted spices, chalky phenolics and white-scale fruits. This is a restrained, long and persistent wine, and once again, I do love it. This comes highly recommended. 13.5% alcohol, sealed under Diam and wax.

A vibrant light gold color, this complex Sauvignon, from one of Marlborough's top producers, is, frankly, a bargain for the quality. There's a thread of salty, flinty minerality that runs through white grapefruit, lime and passion fruit notes. A pithy, crunchy texture and a punch of citrus flavor lingers on the long finish. A classy drop.

A clear and balanced sauvignon blanc with sliced spiced pears, apples and lemons and some flint on both the nose and palate. Medium-bodied with attractive citrus highlights to the aromas above. Drink now. Screw cap.
