Pale lemon with aromas of citrus and tropical flesh fruit. On the palate mango & peach flavors with citrus zest and earthy notes on a balanced structure with lively fresh acidity, more crisp than ‘17. The finish was pleasant and lingered about medium in length. Ok value. Tasting Sample.

A well made, truly Kiwi style Sauv Blanc sipper, in a good way. Nice but not memorable.
