Hunky Dory 2019 Tangle White (Marlborough)

This organic white blend (a combo of Chardonnay, Riesling, Sauvignon, Pinot Gris and Gewürztraminer) is part of Huia's every day range, but it's every bit as good as many of its own label wines. It's pale lemon in hue, with a perfume of fresh peach, pineapple, orange, ginger and heady florals like jasmine and hibiscus billowing from the glass. Soft mineral nuances add complexity. The palate takes it up a notch: dry, textural, laced with bright, prickly acidity and a finish like candied ginger. Expressive of both place and varietals, all at a bargain price. Christina Pickard
