GOLD MEDAL | NZ Organic Wine Awards
FIVE STARS 94/100 | Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

This is Greystone doing what they do best - taking a classic variety and giving it a polished, character-driven spin. Bursting with citrus, fresh herbs and a hint of tropical lift, it’s crisp, vibrant and refreshingly dry. There’s real texture and finesse here too, a far cry from the cookie-cutter Savs out there. One glass will have you topping up before you’ve even realised.

Rebecca Gibb MW writes "Sophisticated, textured and restrained, the 2023 Sauvignon Blanc is organically grown. That care continues in the winery. There are rich aromas of pineapple, red apple and lemon curd with supple layers of interest. It’s round, soft and creamy in texture thanks to being grown on clay subsoil, as well as partial malolactic conversion and maturation in French oak on lees. This is a pared back, carefully thought-out wine that reminds me a little of a good Sancerre – long and satisfying."
Sam Kim, Wine Orbit writes "Fabulously aromatic with elegant complexity, the bouquet shows apricot, green rockmelon, lime peel and oatmeal characters, followed by a wonderfully flavoursome palate delivering terrific fruit power backed by fine texture and vibrant acidity. Mouthfilling and lively, offering splendid drinking. Certified organic. At its best: now to 2030."
The winery writes "Lemon in colour with a full aromatic display of citrus, tropical fruits, snow pea, and subtle oak complexity. The palate is concentrated, and textural supported by fresh acidity and a long mineral finish. Ripe fruit flavours unfold throughout."
