  Pale lemon color. Pronounced aromas of grapefruit, lemon, lime, mango. High acidity, medium alcohol, light body. Pronounced flavors of the citrus and tropical fruit previously listed. Long finish.
  
  A bit closer to the New Zealand style of SB than I remember, but not quite as "in your face with the grapefruit" that the Kiwi wines often have.

  Agree with many of the CT notes here. Really nice, balanced, and tropical, with bright acidity. All around delish.

  Very solid effort here as usual from this producer albeit from a less than stellar vintage. Shy nose, but big flavors of tropical citrus, mint, white peach, flint and herb. Really fills the back end toward the finish with body and more fresh fruit notes. Doesn't seem to have the acidity and verve that would suggest much more cellaring would be beneficial
