Appearance: Bright and clear, pale lemon-green in color, with watery rims and legs. Nose: Clean, medium intensity and having youthful aromas of gooseberry, passion fruit, peach, citrus blossoms, grass, tea leaves and stony. Palate: Dry, medium acidity and refreshing, the wine is of medium alcohol and medium (-) body, showing medium intensity flavors of gooseberry, grapefruit, lime, citrus blossoms and grass, with medium length. Conclusion: Good quality NZ Sauvignon Blanc showing the typical gooseberry characters with good fruit and floral notes of reasonable intensity. Good balance and having an elegant structure, it is reasonably concentrated though not complex, but still exhibiting reasonable length and characters. Ready to drink now and can further keep for another 2-3 years.
