2023 Lismore Wines "The Retreat" Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough New Zealand
90 Points Wine Enthusiast
Lismore Wines produces & exports quality New Zealand wines, specializing in Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc and Hawkes Bay Sauvignon Blanc. Their lovely 2023 proprietary “The Retreat” Sauvignon Blanc is pale straw in color, with brilliant clarity. Expressive and exotic nose of passionfruit, green mango, orange blossom and lime zest. On the palate, it is crisp and lively, with flavors of juicy grapefruit, ripe gooseberry, and a touch of guava, framed by bracing acidity and a delicate minerality. The finish is clean and refreshing, leaving a bright, zesty impression that calls for another sip.
In scoring this wine a 90 Points, Christina Pickard from Wine Enthusiast said, “ripe, fruity SB with heady aromas of passion fruit, pineapple, lime leaf and bell pepper open. The palate is dry, crisp and tart with some chalky texture and a focus of fruit and fresh green garden veg to the finish. Classic Marlborough.”
