Craggy Range 2024 "Martinborough" Te Muna Sauvignon Blanc

92 Points from Wine Enthusiast

93 Points from Wine Spectator

The Craggy Range 2024 Te Muna Sauvignon Blanc from Martinborough is a vivid and expressive white wine that captures the essence of its cool-climate terroir. Pale lemon in color, it opens with elegant aromas of white peach, lemon blossom, fresh-cut herbs, and passionfruit. The palate is crisp and refreshing, layered with notes of orange peel, pineapple, and kiwi, balanced by a fine chalky texture and subtle salinity from the vineyard’s stony soils. Aged on fine lees for three months in stainless steel and French oak puncheons, the wine gains added depth and complexity while retaining its vibrant acidity. This Sauvignon Blanc pairs beautifully with fresh seafood like oysters or grilled prawns, goat cheese salads, and herb-infused dishes such as Thai green curry or lemon-roasted chicken, where its zesty profile and mineral backbone enhance both delicate and bold flavors.

The 2024 vintage has already garnered impressive accolades, including 93 points from Wine Spectator and 92 points from Wine Enthusiast. These scores continue Craggy Range’s streak of ten consecutive vintages earning 90+ ratings, affirming its reputation as one of New Zealand’s premier producers of Sauvignon Blanc. Crafted from over fifty distinct parcels and fermented using a mix of stainless steel, sandstone tanks, and Austrian oak foudres, this wine is a masterclass in precision and terroir-driven winemaking.
