A grassy, herbal Sauvignon Blanc with zesty acidity on the palate. Aromas of white grapefruit and lime. Pair with salads. Dog Point Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough 2016 offers lots of refreshment.

Reviews and Ratings

Jane Staples - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

Crafted from hand-picked grapes, resulting in purity of fruit flavours. Shows tropical fruit & gooseberry nose with tart gooseberry, white asparagus and citrus palate. Excellent acidity dances on the palate. Enjoy with Chicken Alfredo.
Tasted Nov. 2018
South Island Dog Point 2017 is a grassy, zesty, smoky and flinty Sauvignon Blanc from South Island, New Zealand. Lots going on here including great acidity for food. Drink now and pair with freshly grilled seafood. - Community Wine Reviews

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
