Astrolabe 2022 Sauvignon Blanc is produced from sustainably grown grapes sourced from the Wairau Valley, Awatere Valley and Kekerengu Coast. Produced by Simon Waghorn, the wine is dry, medium-bodied with brilliant acidity with fresh peach, tropical fruit, citrus zest and subtle spicy notes silky and concentrated on the palate. So good now.

Sauvignon Blanc food pairings: grilled shrimp, grilled chicken breast, vegetarian pizza, quiches.

Reviews and Ratings

Andrea Shapiro rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

Pale yellow colour with bright gooseberry, peach and chive aromas with flavours of splashy pomelo citrus and zesty minerals on the mouthwatering finish. Love the lingering stony mineral notes! A brilliant pairing with grilled herbed fish and turkey. - tasted February 2024
Produced from sustainably-grown Sauvignon Blanc grapes sourced from the Wairau Valley, Awatere Valley and Kekerengu Coast, Astrolabe 2022 is dry, concentrated and zesty with bright citrus, apple, white-fleshed stone fruit, gooseberry, fine herb flavours and a briny mineral finish. So zesty and good now. Drink to 2027. - Community Wine Reviews
