The Bone Line Sauvignon Blanc 2024

The winery writes "A complex and textural wine from the gravels of our Waipara riverside home — dense with fresh flavours of summer. A Sauvignon Blanc full of character, comprised of fruit from 31 year old vines — 3 different clones grown on three different terraces — handled 3 different ways in the winery. Kaboom!"

Cameron Douglas MS writes "A lovely bouquet filled with scents of site and mineral then ripe citrus and apple, the inherent tropical fruit suggestions are layers as opposed to drivers. Young, fresh and vibrant. On the palate the mineral and saline qualities are amplified by acidity and power to reveal a delicious expression with flavours of grapefruit and mandarin, lime flower and white pineapple. Nice length and mouthfeel with best drinking from day of purchase through 2029."

Stephen Wong MW writes "Restrained and textural sauvignon blanc with a strong streak of minerality. The light-weight, crisp green apple and fennel flavours are infused on a weighty, chalky and even slightly creamy palate. Notes of grapefruit rind and savoury tomato stalk emerge on the bone-dry, etched, grainy finish. A touch austere at this stage, it has the depth and length to emerge with more perfume in the coming months."
