Typical grapefruit flavors, with less acidity and more depth, and just a hint of creaminess and minerals I sometimes get from St. Clair, but this wine is on the downside as the fruit intensity is waning. A good wine, but not as good as their regular bottling.

Wonderful wine. Light medium body yet pungently flavoured with blackcurrant buds and capsicum

Not bad, a bit acidic on the smell and aftertaste but went well with the Salmon dinner.

Another solid QPR sauv blanc from NZ for under $10 (yawn). Typical tropical fruit nose, balanced acidity.

Lovely fresh zingy wine, light but good fruit & acidity and very refreshing with nice length.

Refreshing. Lots of NZ fruit which is peach and melon with citrusy notes. Nice acidity, well balanced.
