Its as tropical on the nose as Marlborough but the palate is closer to Toraine. .

Probably one of the better Sauvignon Blanc's I have drank recently. It lands somewhere between Marlborough and Sancerre with good amounts of green pepper showing through on the nose but finishes on the palate with great amounts of minerality.

Smells like Riesling. Cool wine. Good acid
