The grapes grown in the coastal fields are rich in minerals and have a rock salt aftertaste. This Sauvignon Blanc has crisp citrus acidity and a pleasant floral aroma.
This wine has a salty taste of the sea, which is quite rare among NZ wines. It goes well with seafood, and is a great accompaniment to BBQ shrimp and scallops.
Salty Sauvignon
It is no exaggeration to say that this wine has a taste that sets it apart from typical Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc.
This wine is produced in Kekereng , the southernmost area of Marlborough.
It is a very small region surrounded by sea and mountains, and the extreme maritime climate has a major influence on this wine.
It's the salty flavor you feel when you drink it.
Wine made from grapes grown in coastal fields can have a salty taste like this.
The scent has a citrus scent like lime and a pleasant floral scent like jasmine.
When you put it in your mouth, you can feel the saltiness, like rock salt. It has a mineral feel, almost like drinking hard water, and it is a major part of the flavor.
In Marlborough, the wine style that is common is "fruity and juicy Sauvignon Blanc," but this wine has a more pronounced minerality than fruitiness.
The finish is very long and very dry wine.
When I tried it for the first time, I was surprised to find out that Marlborough had a Sauvignon Blanc like this ! It's a delicious wine with a very powerful flavor.
Recommended pairings
This wine has a hint of the sea, so it would be best to pair it with seafood.
At a BBQ, you can simply grill shrimp and scallops with salt, make them into a salad like carpaccio, or even fry them.
Try pairing it with simple seafood dishes seasoned with salt and herbs!
Seafood BBQ
Sea bream carpaccio
Grilled Salmon
Fried squid rings
About Marlborough
Marlborough is the heart of New Zealand's wine region.
Marlborough has ideal natural conditions for grape growing, such as abundant sunshine and large temperature differences throughout the day, and more than 80% of New Zealand's wine is produced there.
Among them, Sauvignon Blanc, characterized by its crisp acidity and overflowing fruitiness, is produced in overwhelming quantities and is loved worldwide for its unique character. In addition, Pinot Noir, with its rich berry fruit flavor, is also popular among red wines.
About the Winery "Astrolabe"
Astorolabe is a Marlborough winery founded in 1996 by winemaker and owner Simon Waghorn, his wife and friends.
"Astrolabe" is the name of a French ship that arrived on the Marlborough coast in the early 19th century, and means "astronomical observation instrument."
When the winery was first established, they produced small quantities of wine without a label, but as their high quality gradually became known, they began releasing wines under the "Astrolabe" label in 2001. They then began exporting to the UK, and their popularity has been growing year by year.
Astrolabe is unique among New Zealand wines imported to Japan in that it uses grapes from a small region called "Kekereng" . The Sauvignon Blanc named after the region is the wine that characterizes this winery.
In addition, 80% of the wine produced is Sauvignon Blanc, and Bob Campbell MW, a leading New Zealand wine critic, has praised Astrolabe, saying, "Astrolabe is undoubtedly the pinnacle of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc producers."
