The Blackbirch Nelson Sauvignon Blanc 2023 is a vibrant expression of cool climate New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, sourced from the scenic Nelson region. In the glass, it displays a bright to pale green hue, offering brilliant clarity and freshness.
The nose is beautifully aromatic, bursting with intense florals, gooseberry, rock melon, and distinctive notes of elderflower, underpinned by subtle herbaceous tones. On the palate, this Sauvignon Blanc delivers a wave of rich, fresh flavours, featuring layers of passionfruit, guava, and gooseberry, delicately woven with herbal complexity and finished with a crisp, refreshing lift.
Awarded 93 points by Sam Kim (Wine Orbit) and crafted by the multi-award-winning Blackbirch Wines, this is a premium cool climate Sauvignon Blanc that beautifully showcases the purity and intensity of Nelson-grown fruit.
93 Point Rated Sam Kim Wine Orbit
"Beautifully composed and styled, the wine shows white flesh peach, crunchy apple, lime peel and oatmeal notes on the nose, leading to a finely textured palate that's juicy and lively. Charming and delightfully expressed, finishing long and refreshing. At its best: now to 2027."
