2017 PADDY BORTHWICK SAUVIGNON BLANC WAIRAPA

2017 PADDY BORTHWICK SAUVIGNON BLANC WAIRAPA, NEW ZEALAND. 100% Sauvignon Blanc.

91 points Wine Advocate: "Lively redcurrant aromas emerge on the nose of the 2017 Sauvignon Blanc. There's pink grapefruit as well in this medium-bodied, slightly creamy-textured Sauvignon Blanc. It avoids any vegetal notes, delivering a mouthful of bright, refreshing citrus and a long, crisp finish. Nicely done." (03/2018)

Paddy Borthwick family winery is lovated in the Gladstone district of Wairapa, which is in the south-eastern corner of the North Island of New Zealand, east of Wellington and south-west Hawke's. From vines planted in deep alluvial soil, this expressive New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc displays intense tropical fruit aromas and flavors along with ripe melon and passionfruit. There's an underlying hint of signature Kiwi gooseberry and lingering guava and lychee notes. It has a lusciousness not typically found in NZ Sauv Blancs, supremely elegant and delicious.

About:Proudly family owned, the Borthwick Vineyard is an established vineyard situated in Gladstone, the heart of the Wairarapa. Producing quality wine for over a decade, Paddy, an experienced wine maker, has gained a reputation for producing consistently great wines. The 27 hectares of vines bordering the Ruamahunga River in Gladstone, Wairarapa are on stony, free draining, alluvial soils, with a micro climate giving warm daily temperatures, cool nights and low rainfall; perfect conditions for producing distinctive, quality wines. In line with the family’s legacy of international trade, 90 percent of the wine is exported around the world. Paddy believes in sustainability and best practice within a vineyard, developing an asset for generations to come. (Winery)
