Here is a sublime Sauvignon Blanc with perfect balance of fruit intensity and juicy acidity. This is quite aromatic with generous green apple, pineapple, lime and bell pepper notes. The palate is bright and super refreshing without being too tart. A lovely match with lemon chicken, spanakopita, or a fresh heirloom tomato salad.
Eradus Description
Our vines grow on a slender terrace at the edge of the Awatere River, with a unique microclimate and soil structure. Influenced by a fault line, a river, and the power of the nearby Pacific Ocean, our land is stony, dry, windy and cool, elements that create wines of elegance, minerality with a lively and lingering finish. We let the untameable terroir of the Awatere Valley express itself through our vines, grapes and ultimately wines.
James Suckling: 94 Points
This wine shows impressive concentration and depth. The nose is classic sauvignon blanc, with aromas of freshly cut grass, gooseberries and grapefruit. The palate is medium- to full-bodied, featuring a phenolic texture and vibrant mineral tension that add to its appeal. A delicious expression of sauvignon blanc.
