Dashwood, Marlborough, NZ, 2021 Sauvignon Blanc

 

Dashwood, Marlborough, NZ, 2021 Sauvignon Blanc, $17.09-$18.99, 89 points, was a very light brass color with flecks of gold tones and water clear towards the rim.
Aromas were dominated by grassy smells, pineapple, grapefruit, and a lovely fresh honeydew melon.
This was a light-bodied bone-dry white wine with bright acidity and a lime zest, lime juice, and lime rind flavor profile accented with lemon grass, tart grapefruit, and a hint of ginger.
Finished fair on the fading palate and what seemed to me (what do I know) an underrated 13% alcohol.
Paired well with my Gulf of Maine Lobster salad.
