Marlborough, South Island, New Zealand
Very typical Marlborough SB. Fresh cut green grass, grapefruit, asparagus and a hint of flinty nose. Refreshing on the palate.

I’ve been drinking a lot of very citrusy New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc lately. This one is a bit of a change. It has the expected citrus, acidity, and minerality riding on apples. But it’s also got pears, peaches, and flowers. Still , it’s pretty acidic, and maybe best with food. All the usual suspects should work. I had it with roasted cod and herbs and tomatoes.

Dec 3rd, 2019Delicious and i have no idea why because it's such a pleasantly odd mix. Rather acidic, starts citrus and opens up into strong grapefruit before finishing minerally with something I can't quite put my finger on. Didn't stop me from asking grandpa for another bottle from the case

Dec 28th, 2016I'm in love with this wine. As any New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc should be, this wine is aromatic, smooth, and a little lingering. On the nose you have full melon, lemongrass, and some tangerine citrus. On the palette, there's balance between almond creaminess, citrus and light minerality with lots of mouthfeel. ❤️
