Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc 2025 - 375 ml
Introduction
This white wine originates from New Zealand, specifically from the Marlborough region on the South Island. Founded in 1996 by Kim and Erica Crawford, the winery began by purchasing grapes from contract growers and quickly became an iconic brand that helped establish New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc as a global category. While the founders have since moved on, the winery is currently owned by Constellation Brands and remains one of Marlborough's most internationally recognized producers. The winemaking philosophy focuses on showcasing the regional terroir through fresh, vibrant, and aromatic wines that are true to their varietal type.
Wine Description
Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc displays a bright, pale straw colour with green highlights. The nose is aromatic and exuberant, offering intense scents of lifted citrus, passion fruit, and melon layered with characteristic herbaceous notes of crushed herbs and fresh-cut grass. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied and juicy, delivering a vibrant core of pineapple, grapefruit, and stone fruit flavours supported by a taut backbone of zesty acidity. It is characterized by its remarkable freshness, refined minerality, and a long, persistent finish. This 100% Sauvignon Blanc typically features an ABV ranging from 11.6% to 13%, depending on the specific tier and vintage. While the winery is increasingly focused on sustainable practices, the standard release is not typically certified organic, though an organic version is produced in select vintages. The optimal drinking window is from release through two to three years to fully enjoy its youthful fruit character.
