Pale lemon with aromas of stone and tropical fruits with citrus and floral notes. On the palate fresh fruit flavors of grapefruit, pineapple, apple and melon with lemon citrus wrapped in lively acidity, medium length ending with fruit and lemon citrus texture. — 11 days ago
This organic Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is delicious with great concentration and plenty of character! Nicely balanced with rich fruit flavours and mouth-watering acidity. — 3 days ago
A wonderfully light crisp wine; heavy with citrus, I get a white oak note as well, but none of the reviews I read concur, so take that for what its worth. It is magnificent for a hot humid Louisiana summer. — 13 days ago
Thought this blind was an aged red burg, so colour me surprised when it was revealed to be a young NZ pinot. Clearly a little more developed than it should be (colour and aromas), but credit where credit’s due, this was quite elegant. Even after the reveal I could not detect that marmalade finish I find so often in NZ pinot’s. This was all red cherries and ripe strawberries, with savoury spices and earthy notes. Perhaps the quality of the oak, which left much to be desired, and rich velvety texture were the only indications of it’s origin. Finished a touch short. There were wines with more intrigue on the table so I didn’t drink much of it, but it definitely wasn’t a bad drop. One to revisit. — 7 days ago
Rich, powerful tropical fruit aromas... mango and papaya... very grassy on the palate with good acidity and tons of tropical fruit. The Pacific in a glass! — 9 days ago

Lemon, lemon zest, green apple, honey, white pepper and a tiny touch of chalk. This is very inviting. The palate is very dry and tangy. The acid drive is strong and the wine could feel almost unbalanced because the acid drive tends to overpower the fruity notes, and there is width and a vivid mouthfeel that goes on for a long time in a fresh and tangy finish. It's good but I believe it could be better along food. I could see myself munching on sushis along this one 🤤🍣🍱 — 6 days ago
