The white wine Sauvignon Blanc Marama, vintage 2008 from the winery Seresin Estate has been rated in 2012 with 94 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Sauvignon Blanc from the region Marlborough in New Zealand.
Light green yellow in colour. Gooseberry confit with fine citrus notes, mineral touch, underlaid with elderflower and nuances of honeydew melon. Full-bodied, powerful, almost creamy in texture, fine biscuit touch, rich yellow tropical fruit, nuances of blood oranges, tightly woven body, dark minerality, supported by a racy acid structure, fine fruity finish, subtle spicy notes from the French barrique, and very convincing length. It has secure ageing potential, and it is a great food wine.
