This wine’s nose bears the New Zealand standard for Sauvignon Blanc - grassy, herbal, grapefruity and a lanolin note thrown in to the mix. The grapefruit comes on strong on the palate and brings the herbal stuff in through the back door. Acidity is great and the finish is long and full of citrus.

Pretty classic, easy drinking Sauv Blanc, kiwi, green apple, lemon, grapefruit, and a little green melon. It’s grassy, but not over-bearingly green. (Sample)

Fantastic wine! I paired mine with spinach & ricotta stuffed chicken and lemon garlic parmesan roasted vegetables. Very crisp with strong citrus notes. Lots of bright flavors of lemon zest & grapefruit.
