Kim Crawford Signature Reserve Sauvignon Blanc 2018
Pale yellow. Amazingly powerful aromas, distinctively Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. Passionfruit and zesty grapefruit aromatics, with layers of floral and tropical notes. The wine reveals intense, lifted aromatics of tropical fruit that lead into a range of complex flavors, including distinct mineral notes accenting its rich, hefty palate, that last through a clean, crisp finish.
Ideal with herb-crusted rack of lamb, seafood risotto with mussels, shrimp, and scallops, or a light spinach and goat cheese salad.
89 Points - Wine Spectator
Light and crisp, with a fresh herb note of lemon verbena, a core of tangerine and lemon flavors and a hint of flint. Drink now.
85 Points - Wine Enthusiast
Right now, this wine feels underripe and very reductive. Those sweet onion aromas are tough to get past. Canned green beans, and a feline note are prominent too, and citrus rind and pineapple fruit sneak in underneath it all. Acidity on the palate is rather searing, slicing through a weighty mouthfeel, but the two don't seem to gel. This may need a few years to settle into itself more but the jury's still out.
