Fresh and vibrant with zesty citrus skin notes and lemon blossom, the 2022 Sauvignon Blanc offers aromas of lime candy and sea spray. Medium-bodied and with 13.6% alcohol, the wine is beautifully balanced, expressing a harmonious palate with flavors of rocky flint, crunchy citrus and herbs before offering a soft, nutty expression over the citrus-laced finish. Nicely done! Score: 90 Anthony Mueller, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2023 - 2031 29 December 2023 |

The 2022 Sauvignon Blanc comes from 42 vineyard parcels and undergoes an 80% wild ferment so that some take up to two months to finish, aged 5% in barrel and six months on the gross lees. The intense nose has bruised apple, nettle, lime and light orange pith scents. I can imagine this having wide appeal. The palate has quite a tropical-tinged opening with touches of mango and pineapple, yet the "Savvy" DNA still comes through, and there is admirable bite on the finish. Delicious. Score: 90 Neal Martin, Vinous.com 01 November 2023 |

Honeydew, white peaches and fresh herbs on the nose followed through to a medium body with bright acidity. Vivid with volume on the mid-palate and a flavorful, focused finish. Drink now. Screw cap. Score: 91 James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com Maturity: 2023+ 23 October 2023 |
