Description
The Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough Round Stone 2023 is a bright and expressive white wine with real personality. It captures the vibrant spirit of New Zealand’s Marlborough region, known for its crisp, fruit-driven wines. On the nose, you’ll find lively aromas of green apple, pineapple, and fresh herbs like basil or cut grass. These scents invite you in right away.
The first sip is bold and refreshing. It bursts with tropical fruit notes—think passionfruit, lime, and ripe melon. The flavours are juicy yet balanced by a fresh acidity that keeps everything clean and focused. As the wine opens up, a mineral edge gives it structure and depth. The finish is zesty and long-lasting, leaving a bright citrus impression that lingers.
Whether you’re enjoying seafood, goat’s cheese, or a light salad, this Sauvignon Blanc lifts every bite. It’s also perfect on its own, chilled and served outdoors on a warm day. Altogether, it’s a lively, food-friendly wine that suits any and every moment.
