Pale lemon with aromas of tropical and citrus fruits, typical from NZ. On the palate simple flavors of peach, grapefruit, lemongrass and citrus zest with grassy notes. Medium finish ending with fruit and mineral citrus character. Consistent, drink now!

I love a good Sauv Blanc and this is just perfect. Lots of grapefruit and lemon zest. I crave the next sip! And it’s so beautiful out in central Florida for this time of year.

Very straightforward simple, crisp Sav Blanc - like fresh green apples. Light on the pallete and wonderful from the first note to the last

Pale and very light. Lots of mineral bite and grassy notes. Tropical grass is there but the mineral overwhelms. Not my favorite. 2013 Vintage.

Lemony with hints of peach and grassy undertones. No dryness here, an adult lemonade.

my new favorite! very crisp. enjoyable minerality. Notes of juicy grapefruit, maybe lemon? Finishes with lovely lemongrass, and a bit of jalapeño. 10/10!

Very citrus-forward (grapefruit and lemon) and light. High acidity that stays on your tongue. Overall, would get again - love the flavor.
