Bob Campbell: "Crisp, refreshing with mouth-watering acidity" wine for summer

Wine: Nautilus 2023 Albarino, Marlborough $30 

Why I chose it: 

- Exciting new (to New Zealand) grape variety with a great future in this part of the world 

- Nautilus makes my favourite Albarino 

- Great summer wine – crisp, refreshing with mouth-watering acidity 

What does it taste like? 

- A delicious albarino with classic citrus/mandarin/orange flavours. A kiss of sweetness is perfectly balanced by fruity, mouthwatering acidity that leaves a refreshing finish. Memorable wine that makes perfect summer drinking. 

Why it’s a bargain: 

- High quality wine at a reasonable price 

Where can you buy it? 

- Wine Freedom, Otago $24.99; Whiskeyonline, Auckland $25.99; Society Liquor, Wellington $25.99 

- More likely to find it at fine wine stores rather than on supermarket shelves 

Food match? 

- Most seafood, my favourite is scampi seared on the BBQ 

Will it keep? 

- Drink it up
