Introduction
The 2023 Dashwood Sauvignon Blanc is a vibrant and refreshing white wine from Marlborough, New Zealand, celebrated for its expressive fruit and zesty acidity. Dashwood crafts this Sauvignon Blanc to highlight the region’s classic style, with a focus on bold aromatics, tropical fruit, and a crisp, mineral-driven finish. This wine is an ideal choice for those who enjoy the lively, fruit-forward qualities of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc.

Terrior
Marlborough’s cool maritime climate, with long sunny days and cool nights, allows the Sauvignon Blanc grapes to ripen slowly, developing intense flavors and retaining high acidity. The region’s diverse soils, a mix of gravel, clay, and sandy loam, contribute to the wine’s complexity, adding mineral undertones to the vibrant fruit profile.

Appearance
Pale straw with green highlights, clear and bright.

Nose
Aromas of passion fruit, lime zest, and gooseberry, with hints of green bell pepper and freshly cut grass. Subtle notes of tropical fruit, like guava and pineapple, add aromatic complexity.

Palate
Light to medium-bodied with a lively acidity, featuring flavors of grapefruit, green apple, and ripe kiwi. The fresh acidity balances the tropical and citrus notes, while a slight mineral edge provides structure and depth. A touch of herbaceousness enhances the crisp, refreshing character of the wine.

Finish
Clean and refreshing, with lingering citrus and a slight saline note, leaving a crisp, invigorating finish.

Overall Impression
The 2023 Dashwood Sauvignon Blanc is a quintessential Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, offering a balance of bold fruit flavors, herbaceous hints, and a bright, mineral-driven profile. Its vibrant acidity and versatile nature make it an excellent pairing for shellfish, summer salads, and light appetizers, as well as an enjoyable aperitif.
