The 2007 Pencarrow Sauvignon Blanc is endowed with an attractive, perfumed, minerally nose with touches of limestone, granite and gooseberry. The palate is well-balanced, feminine, good acidity with subtle notes of white peach, citrus fruits, a touch of apricot and gooseberry towards the finish. Harmonious with good length, this is very well crafted wine. Palliser Estate is one of Martinborough’s respected names, its first vines planted back in 1984. They presently have 85 hectares under vine with new Pinot Noir Dijon clones (115 and 667) beginning to add more complexity. The winemaker is Allan Johnson, who has overseen the winemaking since 1991 and was voted New Zealand Winemaker of the Year in 2002. Due to time restraints I was unable to visit the estate, so the following notes were all taken single blind in Martinborough and the quality in their superb Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling and Pinot Noir shone brightly.Importer, Negociants USA, Napa, CA; tel.
