Palliser Estate Pencarrow Sauvignon Blanc 2025 from Martinborough is a crisp, clean, estate‑grown savvy built to be dangerously drinkable – all vibrant fruit, bright acidity and cool‑climate precision in a more relaxed second‑label style. It is the sort of sauvignon that wins over both “sav” lovers and fence‑sitters.palliser+4

The nose is zesty and expressive with guava, passionfruit and lime, layered with pink grapefruit, Nashi pear, blackcurrant leaf, elderflower and a gentle musk/floral lift. The palate is medium‑bodied yet lively, bursting with succulent tropical and citrus fruit, a stony mineral graze and mouth‑watering, well‑judged acidity that drives a long, fresh, dry finish. It’s soft and rounded in feel, but never loose – there is real energy underneath the lush fruit.midwaycellars.shop.fleetstreet.com+7

On the table, Pencarrow Sauvignon Blanc 2025 is perfect with sole or white fish, goat’s cheese salad, pesto pasta, chimichurri‑dressed seafood or anything that once lived in the sea. It’s also a cracking aperitif or picnic white, best enjoyed young over the next two to three years while that fruit is humming.raymondchanwinereviews.
