On the drier side. Nose was bright and promising, but the taste disappoints somewhat. Unless you like your sauv blancs subtle. Passion fruit. Lacks the big grass and herbs.

Drinking with Hanna on her deck with many other people around. Bought from Cork and Fork. Pale yellow and very light color. The nose feels soft. Tastes lemony and it is juicy. A little slate but not much. Pretty great but a little expensive, low 30s. Would definitely drink again

Always looking to try a new NZ SB. Typical flavor and aroma profile. Heisman Saturday. Crazy weather everywhere. Stay safe all of my delectable friends.

2020 vintage.
Grown across 3 Marlborough sub regions..
Wairau Valley, Awatere Valley and the Kekerengu Coast.
The good folks at Astrolabe always deliver.
Tinned tropical fruit and ripe apples on the nose.
Racy acidity with ripe tropical fruit, green bean, with fresh sage and basil.
Classic Kiwi Sauvignon Blanc

Acceptable Sauvignon Blanc, with great fruit flavor to start, but finishing with an unpleasant grassy and vegetal flavor.
