The 2022 E Block Sauvignon Blanc is from a few rows in the estate vineyard in Waihopai Valley (Southern Valleys). From memory, this is a Bordeaux clone, and the wine has been left on its lees for an extended period of time in order to build complexity. In the mouth, the wine is austere and gravelly - the fruit is mineral and grey, leaning towards citrus pith and lemongrass instead of more traditional tropical fruit characteristics. This is most welcome. An impressive wine... Drink date: 2023-2028. Score - 91.
