We picked up this Marlborough Sauv from our local Liquorland for about $15. Both Mr. Spittoon and I really got into our Sauv's again in Vanuatu - being so close to NZ, they have a ton of Kiwi wine over there. And the Sauv's were just so refreshing and easy drinking in the heat.

This 2015 Land of Giants is a pastel yellow colour on the eye. Vibrant passion fruit, flowers and fresh herb rise out of the glass to entice the nose. And on the palate it nearly has a honeyed asparagus and passionfruit flavour to it with citrus and minerality coming through to refresh and balance the wine. A cost-effective mid-afternoon tipple!

All opinions are based on my own taste buds. Wine is subjective, so make sure you drink what you enjoy!
