Wow. The nose is immediately noticeable and so full,’smelling of the Sauvignon Blanc fruits. The palette is intense New Zealand with powerful apricot and tropical fruit flavor. A spectacular value.

True to Marlborough style SB a tinge of green but not grassy - more flinty mineral wine with clean feel on palate and lasting aftertaste
Hits the spot on a hot summer’s afternoon in Sydney
