The 2018 Cape Crest Sauvignon Blanc is 90% Sauvignon Blanc, 6% Sémillon and 4% Sauvignon Gris, all barrel-fermented in 30% new French oak immersion-bent barrels. It doesn't have any charred, nutty character as a result, but it does show a grainy nuance layered over ripe fig and melon notes. It's medium to full-bodied and richly textured, with fabulous grapefruit-infused length on the finish. It's just a lovely Graves-like wine that should drink well for at least 5 years.

Crisp pear and lime notes are fresh and lively, set on a light, juicy frame, with a lemon verbena accent. Drink now. 2,000 cases made, 150 cases imported.??–MW??Region: New Zealand / Hawkes Bay Select to Add

The barrel-fermented 2016 Sauvignon Blanc Cape Crest includes small proportions of Sauvignon Gris (4%) and Sémillon (9%). Grilled nectarine and citrus make for a striking nose, while the medium to full-bodied palate is ripe and rounded yet lively, featuring a long, tart, grapefruity finish accentuated by classy hints of pencil shavings.

The Graves-like 2015 Sauvignon Blanc Cape Crest is a barrel-fermented and aged blend of 85% Sauvignon Blanc, 11% Sauvignon Gris and 4% Sémillon. Subtle notes of vanilla and pencil shavings enrobe passion fruit and guava in this elegant, medium-bodied wine. It's flavorful without being flamboyant, a discrete dinner companion with a lingering presence on the citrus and wet stone finish.
