    Whitecliff Sauvignon Blanc - Impressive

    By: Jon Thorsen Published: June 25, 2021 Last Updated: January 26, 2023

    A great bottle for around $12, the Whitecliff Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough, New Zealand.

    Whitecliff Sauvignon Blanc - Impressive

    Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough, New Zealand. The wine has 4.1 g/L of residual sugar. 

    Sample submitted for review. The wine has an SRP of $16 but is available for as low as $12. It is imported by Palmateer Wine Group.

    From the bottle:

    Whitecliff offers fruit driven, full flavoured, easy drinking wines. This wine reveals lively tropical fruit flavours of guava and passionfruit. The perfect accompaniment to shellfish, seafood and other white meats. Enjoy the moment.

    Produced and Bottled by Whitecliff Wines
    13.0% Alcohol

    The 2020 Whitecliff Sauvignon Blanc begins with quite a nice, classic New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc aroma full of lemon and lime plus grapefruit and grass.

    Taking a sip reveals a smooth and tasty wine with deep fruit flavors similar to the nose. Lively acidity and a touch of sweetness from just a bit of residual sugar adds wide appeal.

    A nice touch of salty minerality under the fruit leads into the dry, quite long, lip-smacking finish. This is a great bottle of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc.

    Ready to buy? Check your local retailers.
