    disappointing

    I used to be a big fan of Jackson Estate, but they have become inconsistent. recently half a case of Grey Ghost went down my sink as it was vegetalised and basically horrible. not a producer that i fully trust anymore.

    Fantastic Sauvignon Blanc for the money

    Excellent sauvignon blanc from the Jackson Estate. Is there a better one? Yes, their Grey Ghost sauvignon blanc, which I was lucky enough to purchase as a Christmas treat. It is more expensive, but is only produced in small amounts. Both are top flight in their respective price bands.

    As good as it gets

    Seriously under-valued wine, even at 5*. Knocks all the other New Zealand SB's into a <em class='sw'>cock</em>ed hat. Brilliant.

Staff Reviews

  • Sauvignon Blanc at its best

    "A truly fantastic example of a Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough. A big favourite with staff and customers alike, this is a truly elegant wine, offering a nose of citrus, peach, elderflower and gooseberry. On the palate this wine is well-balanced and intense with fantastic minerality and great length. A truly classy wine! A truly awesome match with light chicken dishes or pan-seared scallops....but equally fantastic on its own! As a treat, I also recommend Jackson's Grey Ghost Sauvignon Blanc...well worth the extra pennies!"

Press Reviews

  • Focussed and together. Lovely. (2011 Vintage)

    "Sauvignon Blanc is a summer staple but as 2011 was a disappointing year for it in the Loire I’m looking to New Zealand to supply one that’s vibrant and youthful. This is a superb example, focussed and together. Lovely. (Victoria Moore, The Telegraph, 16th June 2012)"
