Marlborough, South Island, New Zealand
Decent NZ SB, crisp and all, but no refined flavors that would lead us further.

Textbook NZ SB, so classic and easy to approach. Medium lemon color. Green grass, asparagus, white flowers, honeysuckle, green apple, grapefruit, with a pleasant butter or yeast flavor on the nose. Light to medium bodied, grapefruit, green apple on the palate with a passion fruit finish. Very nice. 13.5% alc. 2012 vintage

Happy Sauvignon Blanc Day to everyone and tonight I have opened the 2018 Mahi Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc.
On the nose there is good stone and citrus fruit, grapefruit, lime, white peach, mandarin orange, white flowers and wet river rock.
On the palate the stone and citrus fruits still come through, grapefruit, lime, nectarine, pear, lemongrass, celery, good minerality and wet concrete.
This wine is medium bodied with medium + to high electric acidity that moves seamlessly into a long crisp citrus finish with a mineral ending. Have a great weekend the best we can and please stay safe and healthy. Nostrovia! 🥂🥂🥂🥂

Brash Kiwi #SauvignonBlanc. A bit of a slap in the face if a good wake-up call!

年份老了，回味有点苦，但是还可以，青草百香果的味道还是有的，极其搭配盐水鸭烧鸡这类吃的

Wet lemongrass flavor. With some apples toward the end. Rather light and very easy to drink

Got some green apple on this. Slightly tart. I didn’t find it overly grassy. Enjoyed with sushi at Itoko on Southport in Chicago.

Bang Average NZ Sav B. More and expensive and not as good as Villa Maria
