Wish there was an 'i Love it' category. This wine is singing right now - pale gold core to the rim with a riotous nose of ripe pineapple, mango, fresh mown clover, honey, basil and more... The palate jumps with fresh pineapple, golden delicious apple, lime, lemongrass and mineral. The finish is medium with the honey, honeycomb, lime and pineapple continuing. This is possibly the best SB I've ever enjoyed. Drink now though - this is the peak.

Greatly enjoyed this one on the patio by itself and later with salmon brochettes. Crisp with typical NZ SB palate of gooseberries but with hints of banana and pineapple. Very good.

Great wine for summer sipping on the deck. Crisp, retains lots of character even very chilled. Lots of grapefruit.
