2022 Kono Sauvignon Blanc

Very light yellow color. Noses pink grapefruit and mango, very tropical.

Lots of grapefruit flavors, very strong, and the acidity is off the scale.

Quite drinkable, but no cigar. Best with food--went well with a shrimp-tomato-orzo dish.

Tasty sauvignon blanc. I paired it with tortellini with white sauce and spinach.

Acidic at first then for some strange reason it opened up and became drinkable.

Day 2: elegant and light nose, pretty and fresh strawberries and light cherry, some currants and enjoyable florals, lavender, lilac. A nice monotones earthy profile that is more moist soil/ wet moss than anything dried. Not a complex nose but nice freshness and elegance with some good development shown. Pallet is light on its feet, still tart acid which really holds the wine together. A slightly more concentrated cherry and strawberry note with the same florals. A bit more texture from tannins than you’d expect, leaves a rougher tongue. Light oak profile, not much of the earthiness. Proper length of finish. Overall a nice wine showing much better than anticipated for its age, beautiful and elegant fruit that still holds its own, acid is still present and strong, good finish. Really enjoyable

Very pale yellow. Light aromas of grass, lime and green apple. Light body and low-intensity flavors reprising the nose. Tastes like a watered down version of a better SB.

Lower in acid than many NZ Sauvignon Blancs. Grapefruit, lemon, lime, and saline. Not as fruit forward as some. Grapefruit dominates, no grass.
The fruit is there but on the lighter side. Nothing complex, but very enjoyable.

Nectarine, grapefruit, lime and cut grass aromas and flavors. Crisp, dry finish with good persistence. Solid NZ SB and VG QPR. Served with grilled marinated chicken.

Bright and acidic. Grapefruit, lemon, lime, and saline. The fruit is there but a tad light. Really crisp and clean, which makes it my kind of Kiwi SB. This will be a nice refreshing wine this summer. Can't beat the price.

Citrus, stone fruits, and green apples come to mind in this delightfully crisp Sauvignon Blanc. Solid QPR.

Light ruby in the glass. Quite aromatic, all the aromas pointing to bright red fruit and hints of earth. Really sour on the palate. I wanted to enjoy this and thought it was going to have more smoothness, but the citrus-like acid just keeps hitting me in the face. Medium finish. Will not drink again.
