  This is classic New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, with grapefruit on the palate and notes of tropical fruit and grass on the medium to long finish, with good acidity. The value for money is average to good at about $30.

  Drank this at Crystal Jade Palace with my wine mates. Theme of the evening: Wines that start with the letter Z.
  
  Straw green-yellow in colour. Wine was pumped up and ready to go from the start. Shedding its fruit bomb image, this wine is more lean, focused and sharp. Diligent and does a good job delighting the guests and matching with the food.
  
  If you need a go-to wine to start a party, this is the wine.

  Auge: Klares, helles zitronengelb
  
  Nase: Sauber. Intensive Aromen von Zitrone, Grapefruit, Stachelbeere, Gras. Jugendlich
  
  Gaumen: Trocken, hohe Säure, mittlerer Alkohol von 13.5%, mittlerer Körper mit intensiven Aromen von Grapefruit, Gras, Zitrone, mineralisch, mittlerer Abgang
  
  (BLIK 1+0.75+0.75+0.5=3) Sehr gute Qualität. Schön balanciert. Wein ist knochentrocken und lebt von seiner charakteristischen, intensiven Aromatik. Kann getrunken werden, hat noch 1-2 Jahre Reifepotential und 1-2 Jahre Lagerpotential

  Gorgeous defined green fruit, with an intense melon and passion fruit note. Elegant on the palate - all the usual high acidity but with a broad, rich mouthfeel and more body than previous vintages (a touch of malo?). Long and intense finish. Gastronomic. I’d age it - 4-5 more years and this will be in an even better spot.
