Tastes like I’m eating a Granny Smith apple. Not my style but tastes the way it should. Good stuff.

Overt Tropicana balanced with fun-fun citrus. Light bodies and handsomely acidic.

Green apple, star fruit, and lemon. Piercing acidity that grips and will not let go. Definitely meant to be paired with food. Acid was a little too strong for my taste.

Pale straw colour with an assertive grassy and gooseberry on the nose. Lemon, passionfruit and slightly saline palate. Zippy acidity. Great, great value wine.

Villa Maria 2014 Sauvignon Blanc Private Bin. A softer more creamy sauv Blanc on the palate. Hints if of course grapefruit, grass and celery.
