Diam cork. The wine was light to medium yellow/green in colour and offered gooseberry, grapefruit, lemon and underripe pineapple as well as grassy and lactic notes on the nose. On the palate the wine showed underripe gooseberry, green apple, grapefruit and lemon as well as herbaceous and lactic notes, with high, slightly tart acidity and very good length. A medium-bodied, rather tart and acidic Sauvignon Blanc that showed strong varietal character and had good typicity. Very correct.

Confected nose. The palate had tons of acididty delivered through grapefruit, gooseberry and lemon to end with a tangy finish. I can't say I enjoyed it and nor did most of the people who were at the tasting. In a straight head to head with Te Pa from NZ this lost by a landslide....

Slightly sweet grapefruit water. Must be consumed with food, otherwise overly acidic. Lacks subtlety.
