The Majestic sales rep insisted that I try this wine. I found out why. Completely unusual and very different then any New Zealand SB I have ever tasted. Funky nose which reminds me of camomile, melted plastic, and sandalwood with cat pee all over it. Palette reflected the same but with very crisp acidity, lime, and smoky oak character. Would drink again.

Too ripe, too oaked. Green capsicum. One glass enough.

Excellent Sauvignon Blanc having a different style. This wine is more European in style. Less grapefruit and more vanilla. A complex Sauvignon, if surprising.

Weirdest SB I’ve ever had, like a cross between a chardonnay and a champagne with a yeasty effervescence.

Funky and different. Essence of dill pickle.
