BOB’S BEST BUYS 

Wine: Jules Taylor 2023 Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough $26.99 

Why I chose it: 

- From the very good 2023 vintage 

- Jules Taylor is a consistently good SB producer 

- Stock up for summer 

- I’m a big fan of Marlborough SB 

What does it taste like? 

- Ripe yet tangy sauvignon with passion fruit, guava, lime zest, gooseberry and red capsicum flavours. Reasonably concentrated, vibrant wine with punchy varietal characters. Impressive wine with purity and power. 

Why it’s a bargain: 

- It’s a very good wine at a fair price. 

- Recently released – price may drop in another month or two when it gets wider distribution.

Where can you buy it? 

- Glengarry in Auckland $26.99. Keep an eye out at your local supermarket but make sure you get the 2023 vintage. 

Food match? 

- I like it with smoked salmon. Good match with Feta cheese. 

Will it keep? 

- Good for 3-4 years but probably not a lot to gain from keeping it.
