Zephyr MKIII Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2020 $32

Wow! Forget what you thought you knew about sauvignon blanc because winemaking wunderkind Ben Glover has somehow smashed together soft, creamy passionfruit curd, lemonade, fennel and feijoa to create a gently smoky, plush, tropically tasty thing that’s incredibly food-friendly. It’s a juicy, citrus-soaked and herb-edged sauvignon that’s fattened up and tizzied up (technical term there) with buckets of tropical fruit too.  Forget your pixie-cut, if this wine was a hair-do, it’d be a beehive of B52 proportions!  Just lovely with yellow fish curry.
