Sauvignon blanc Craggy Range Marlbourgh 2020 @waitroseandpartners Score 87 New Zealand's oldest working vineyard dates back to 1851 when French Catholic missionaries planted vines in hawkes bay. The first vines were planted in 1819. Brancott Estate started planting Sauvignon blanc in 1973, the country never looked back. All my life NZ has been known mainly for producing Sauvignon blanc but it wasn't until 2002 that it became NZ primary planted grape. It was Chardonnay until then, Martinborough in the North island makes world class Chardonnay to this day and Central Otago do the same with Pinot Noir but Sav is the big show in town. Two thirds of NZ wines are white and 58% of the country's wine is made Marlborough where Sav is king. Craggy Range does a beautiful crisp, clean and bright Sauvignon blanc. The perfect expression of what NZ Sav is all about. Beautiful Gooseberry, Citrus fruit, fresh cut grass and a little jalapeño spice. The structure of the wine is classic Sav, mouth watering acidity, light bodied and very refreshing. I really enjoyed this with some Lamb Tacos.
