Thornbury 2022 Sauvignon Blanc is vibrant with fresh gooseberry, tropical fruits, citrus zest and fresh-cut grass and fine herb flavours lifted, tangy and finishing long on the palate. A classic Marlborough SB and crowd pleaser.

Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Refreshing and bright. This zesty Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough shows a lot of the typical "savvy b" notes including lime, gooseberry, passion fruit, green herbs and fresh cut grass along with a touch of minerality. On the palate, there is really bright acidity, balanced with a creamy citrus and tropical fruit note. Nice balance. Enjoy with citrus-seasoned white fish dishes, such as halibut.
From Marlborough wine region, South Island, Thornbury 2022 Sauvignon Blanc is vibrant with tropical fruits, gooseberry, lemongrass and fine herb flavours generous and juicy on the palate with a long, satisfying finish. Drinking beautifully now. - Community Wine Reviews
