Dashwood Estate Sauvignon Blanc 2025

Tasting Notes

Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc at its most vivid and accessible. Passionfruit, guava and citrus zest leap from the glass, while a thread of fresh herbs and green capsicum adds classic varietal complexity. Bright, clean and unapologetically expressive, this is the Sauvignon Blanc that opens conversations, sells itself, and brings customers back. Vibrant acidity carries the fruit through a refreshing, mouthwatering finish. The benchmark mid-market Marlborough SB.
