Dog Point Sauvignon Blanc 2023
Marlborough
New Zealand

"Lush and expressive, with plenty of concentration to the mix of mango, lemon curd and litsea oil flavors. Details of dried pineapple, candied ginger and crystalized orange zest add complexity and aromatics on the long finish. Drink now. 35,000 cases made, 8,000 cases imported." —Wine Spectator

"The 2023 Sauvignon Blanc is flinty and gray scale on the nose, with graphite, asphalt, white paper, preserved lemon rind and dried sage. In the mouth, the tropical fruit continues to be kept at bay, while the aroma notes continue through the length of the palate. this is a classy wine, all elegance and restraint. It's very different from the 2024—what I would classify as "more classical"—tasted alongside. 13% alcohol, sealed under screw cap." —Wine Advocate

"The 2023 Sauvignon Blanc is light in body but dense in concentration because of low yields. It's almost silvery in color and restrained due to hand-picking, leading to pure grapefruit, passion fruit and nectarine, all delivered with plenty of focus and punch. The finish is long, precise and sinewy." —Vinous
