  Crisp & fine on the palette. Classic NZ Sauv Blanc. Could still age just fine for another few years.

  Very nice, rather rich with a somewhat tropical feel, but the acidity is precise. It will not make me a fan of NZ sauvignon blanc, but this is certainly among the best I've tasted. No sign of age, really, but I think the genre calls for drinking them young.

  The best NZ Sauvignon Blanc I have ever tasted. Much mire refined that Cloudy Bay with lovely overtones of the Loire mixed in with classic NZ gooseberry taste

  Retailer tasting (@ AW): Expressive bouquet. Very much citrus acidity and a long aftertaste.
