Very NZ SB like nose of exotic tropical fruits, lime, and fresh cut grass. One of the most richly textured SB I’ve tasted on the palate, complemented by vibrant and fresh acidity.
Really good.

Piercing nose of gooseberry, lime and flint. Nice persistence on the palate. Restrained but typical. A good effort.
