Smith & Sheth CRU Sauvignon Blanc 2019

SAUVIGNON BLANC FROM WAIRU, NEW ZEALAND

May 25, 2020

Happy Sauvignon Blanc Day!! Today I am talking about Smith & Sheth CRU Sauvignon Blanc 2019 from Wairu, New Zealand. ✨


Wairu Valley is a district in the famous Marlbourough wine region of New Zealand. This is usually where you find the bold, tropical, intense Sauvignon Blanc wines. ✨


This wine was created by Master of Wine @stevesmithmw and business partner, Brian Sheth. Their site promises notes of nectarines and citrus characters, with a bright finish. ✨


My taste buds are screaming to drink this. But believe it or not, I am going to store this one away. Smith and Sheth says this can hold for another 5 years — meaning it’s ready now but will continue to evolve deliciously for the next couple of years. I would love to see the flavor development after some time in the cellar. This is the fun side of wine. Sooo...I’m going store this one away for a bit and excitedly await a whole new level of flavors. Well, at least that’s the plan......

ACKER AUCTION WIN!

I scored this 2000 @cerettowinery "Bricco Rocche" Barolo at one of the weekly web auctions held by Acker Wines. I always have fun bidding because I know I won’t find these labels (especially considering the vintage) at my local wine stores. I also love winning :-)
