The 2022 Urlar Sauvignon Blanc is a vibrant and textural white from Gladstone, Wairarapa, crafted with a mix of stainless steel and barrel fermentation for added complexity. The nose is expressive, showing gooseberry, citrus and floral notes, layered with hints of white peach, grapefruit and subtle spice.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with bright acidity and a rounded, balanced texture, where tropical fruit, apple and citrus are complemented by a gentle mineral and smoky edge. The finish is fresh, clean and persistent, combining vibrancy with depth. The style is energetic yet refined, offering both freshness and complexity.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for customers seeking a premium Sauvignon Blanc with more texture and character than typical styles. Ideal for lovers of New Zealand whites with added depth. Best enjoyed now. Perfect with seafood, salads or grilled chicken.
