Zonte’s Footstep Excalibur Sauvignon Blanc 2022

The wine is gin clear, fresh and bright, and it really is compelling evidence of what a great vintage the region enjoyed. Slightly leafy, lemony and with notes of fresh limes. Florals and tropical notes lingering gently underneath. A fine line of acidity leading to a lengthy and always fresh finish with good balance. This is a classic Savvy and even haters of that variety would be hard pressed not to enjoy this wine, especially if served with a plate of fresh seafood. Drink now for 2 to 3 years. Drink: 2022-2025. Score – 92. (Ken Gargett, winepilot.com, Oct. 2022)
