93 points “The 2021 Sauvignon from Greywacke is classic yet classy. It is richly aromatic yet not flamboyant with good purity of fruit: expect flavours of black currant and nectarine alongside subtle tropical fruit and citrus. Due to a naturally low-yielding season it offers impressive concentration and a ripe succulent midpalate. The fine mouth-watering acidity provides length and line on the zesty passionfruit-infused lightly structured finish. Delightful in youth but it will evolve and provide a different Sauvignon experience in five to seven years.” – Antonio Galloni’s Vinous
Although Greywacke is relatively young this label from the irrepressible Kevin Judd is destined to become one of New Zealand's most exciting names this decade. Judd acquired fame with the establishment of Cloudy Bay winery which subsequently cemented its place as one of the world’s most iconic and recognisable wine brands.
This Sauvignon Blanc is created from select parcels of fruit grown in prime vineyard sites in Marlborough’s Southern Valleys. The wine is a quintessential expression of Marlborough with fragrant aromas of ripe summer fruits melon white peaches and delicate citrus blossom and elderflower. For fans and followers of Cloudy Bay - and New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc in general - Greywacke cannot be missed. Perfect to be enjoyed as an aperitif it can also accompany goats’ cheese sushi or fennel and parmesan salad.
