Natalie's Score: 94/100

Toi Toi Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough's South Island is a medium-bodied, certified sustainable white with an instantly appealing nose of green mango, dried elderflower, crushed stone, and a cool saline edge from Marlborough's long, breezy growing season. The palate is juicy and precise, with lemon curd, white grapefruit, a thread of fresh fennel, and a long, persistent finish with lively, mouth-watering acidity. Winemaker Ant Mackenzie, who brings nearly three decades of New Zealand winemaking experience to the role, took over from the founding winemaker at this family-owned brand, established in 2006 by the Joyce and Bonner families and now one of New Zealand's top 25 wineries by volume, among the first to produce a sparkling Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. Serve it well chilled now through 2027 with seafood chowder, where the wine's bright acidity cuts through the richness, or try it with grilled prawns and a herbed goat cheese salad for a summer pairing that earns every sip.

Sauvignon Blanc food pairings: seafood chowders, grilled prawns, green salads topped with herbed goat cheeses and sliced baby beets.

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.
