Waitrose, No1 Astrolabe Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough, New Zealand, 2020

This really is a very classy Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, from the Awatere Valley, which typically produces wines with a greener and less tropical character than wines from other parts of the Valley such as Wairau. Green pepper crunch, warm lemon pith and lime citrus fruit, with a streak of refreshing acidity. Tangy, herby and harmonious. On offer at £9.49 from 1st December to 2nd January.
