Viewer Recommends Stoneleigh Sauvignon Blanc (Episode 423)

We taste a Sauvignon Blanc recommended by a viewer.

The wine in question is the Stoneleigh Sauvignon Blanc. It is produced in New Zealand’s Marlborough region which has a reputation for producing excellent Sauvignon Blancs.

At £8.50 this wine is cheaper than a lot of Sauvignons from this region, but is it as good?

The colour is a very pale golden colour with a hint of green.

John M immediately detected elderflower and grapefruit on the nose – just what one would expect with a Sauvignon.

On the palate, the grapefruit comes through, and the acidity is not too intense, just nicely balanced.

The length is also excellent with the taste developing in one’s mouth to a more tropical peachy flavour towards the end.

This wine is excellent value!
