  Classic new zeal sauv, fruit lead, gold color (not yellow), a bit carbonated less, with citrus after bite, but quite approachable and easy to drink

  My favorite NZ Sauvignon Blanc. Clean fresh grapefruit taste. Floral nose. Stsnds up well to spicy foods.

  Chosen on a recommendation for a 'typical' NZ SB. It lived up to the billing. Very light gold. Muted grassy bouquet. Medium bodied, grapefruit, chalk and lemon. Good acidity. This is in its drinking window, but it is nearly done. Not over the top and very typical of a NZ SB - it really couldn't be anything else. Good drinking. Good QPR. I would like to taste this in other vintages and see if it gains complexity.

  Pale lemon in colour with lovely aromas of peach & a hint of citrus & floral.
  On the palate, medium bodied gooseberry, peach, citrus, green fruit, floral/herbal with high acidity & a creamy mouthfeel.
  Finish is long & sharp to a chalky minerality & there is good complexity here due to multiple fermentation methods in small batches. Well done!
