Score 88/100 · Drink 2020-2021, Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate, Apr 2020
No doubt for marketing purposes, even such Hawke's Bay icons as Esk Valley have Marlborough wines as part of their portfolio. The 2019 Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is a solid effort, offering up scents of passion fruit and less powerful notes of green tomato. It's crisp and medium-bodied, with plenty of grapefruit flavors on the palate and a tart, refreshing finish.

This has a very attractive, passion-fruit core of aromas and flavors with a fresh, fleshy and attractive palate that carries a wealth of bright, fresh fruit on the finish. Drink now. Screw cap.
