2021 Allan Scott Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc
94 Points - Sam Kim:
"Fresh and gorgeously lifted, the bouquet shows Granny Smith apple, rockmelon, fig and kaffir lime notes, leading to a powerfully expressed palate offering excellent varietal purity and persistency. Wonderfully flavoursome and highly enjoyable. At its best: now to 2024." (Aug 2021)
93 Points #1 Value of 2021 - Wine Spectator:
"Strikes a terrific balance between mouthwatering acidity, fresh herbal notes of lemon verbena and thyme, and core flavors of key lime, meyer lemon, pineapple and tangerine. Gains momentum on the finish, where the flavors sing in harmony and complexity." -MaryAnn Worobiec (Nov 2021)
Bloomberg:
“This mouth-watering, fruit- and herb-driven white is a top example of New Zealand’s entry level ‘savvies,’ from the region that launched the style.”
