Marlborough is the home of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, and this is a lovely example of why the style is so loved. Expect zesty citrus, a wave of tropical fruit and a subtle herby freshness, and it's bright, crisp and genuinely refreshing. It's a great one to start with. Sauvignon Blanc is one of the most popular white styles around, so the odds are it's already your kind of thing, and Esk Valley make an honest, well-made version. Serve well chilled, with fresh seafood or a goat's cheese salad.
