On the nose, lemon, lime, cut grass, green bean, hints of cat pee, banana, green melon, vanilla notes, cream, whiff of herbs, yellow & spring flowers.

Nice lemon, lime candy, pineapple, grapefruit, green melon, banana, cream, vanilla notes, passion fruit, nice chalkiness and volcanic minerals. Great acidity, balance and fresh, ripe lively finish.

Photos of; Venge, barely room, stainless steel tank room and Estate vines.

Refreshing, great acidity, and a touch of depth and body I don’t often get from a Sauvignon blanc.

Clean and full of racy citrus and flint mineral texture. This wine brings me back to liking Sauvignon Blanc again!

Good balance of sweet and tart, and well integrated alcohol. A great summer white.

, perfumed nose but not up to par with Juliana Vineyard of years past.
Once I opened it I thought wow this is going to be great, no cat urine! But there is a sour pucker finish to it that doesn't do it for me, maybe others will like it more than I did, eagerly waiting for other reviews
