TASTING NOTES FOR Framingham Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough New Zealand 2022
🍈 Texture & Finish
Textural and mouth-filling with vibrant acidity. The finish is long, crisp and layered, showing citrus, mineral notes and a subtle savoury complexity.
🍇 Overall Style
A refined, slightly more complex take on Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc—still fresh and aromatic but with added texture, minerality and sophistication from lees work and winemaking influence.
🍽️ Food Pairing
Perfect with oysters, prawns, grilled fish, goat’s cheese salads or fresh Asian dishes. The acidity and texture make it very food-friendly.
🍷 BBD Verdict
This is Sauvignon Blanc with a step up in class—fresh, vibrant but with real texture and interest. A standout for mixed dozens, offering Marlborough energy with added complexity and serious drinkability.
Cheers
