Pale lemon color with aromas of stone and tropical fruits with citrus zest and floral notes. On the palate fresh fruit flavors of grapefruit, pineapple, apple and melon with lime citrus wrapped in lively acidity, medium length ending with fruit and citrus character.

This NZ Sauvignon is more balanced and complex than your standard. Hailing from Hawkes Bay which is cooler climate than Marlborough it showcases passionfruit, grapefruit, gooseberry across the nose with a well balanced palate adding a layer of minerality though a smooth finish. Excellent wine and wonderful pairing with fresh tomato basil pasta! [7/18/22] ($11)

Bright acidity and strong passion fruit come through. A little on the driver side.

Not an overly complex wine, but well balanced. Great for a warm day of causal wine consumption.

Strong citrus zing, surrounded by a chorus of tropical fruits. This is lovely SB and I’m not usually one for New Zealand SB.

Mineral with a tangy stone fruit. Lingers for a while. Refreshing well balanced.

Not much unique going on feels on par with a real run of the mill sauv blanc

Quite nice with rainbow trout. ($14). Perfect spring summer wine with veggies, chicken and fish.

Super tasty New Zealand Sauvignon blanc. Reasonably priced ($17) and as expected. Bright citrus notes, astringent. Color was only faintly yellow. Would love to have again especially on a warm summer day
