Te Awanga Estate Wildsong Sauvignon Blanc Sparkling Cuvée 2018 ($poa)

Truth be told, I’ve not been a big fan of the sparkling sauvignon blanc style, but this little export-only lovely from Te Awanga Estate in Hawke’s Bay has more personality packed into it than a high school drama troupe (and we all know how OTT those kids can be right?).  Punchy passionfruit, peach and licked with lemon and lime, it’s a deliciously dry crowd-pleaser with party written all over it.
