Slightly plonky passion fruit with just enough acid to keep it interesting. With less this might devolve into Skittles territory.

Apr 25th, 2022Comes with built-in “ready to drink” temperature sensor, “snowflake” on label turns “blue” in fridge when ready to drink! Pale straw with aromas of citrus and tropical fruits adding grassy floral herb notes. On the palate ripe peach and pineapple with lemon zest, classic New Zealand SB. Vivid acidity and grassy spice complement this well balanced wine to a medium finish.

Taste is vivid acidity, lychee and green apple, tinkling, a touch of mineral, and just a bit too watery. Aftertaste has some more lychee note and warmth in the throat. Too light or she will be quite unique.
