  Deliciously fresh citrus nose, some gooseberry. Lovely juicy palate. Delicious.

  this my 2nd bottle - i've come to a conclusion that this wine need the right food to shine, and it shouldn't be drinking on its own. It is zesty, with sent of predominantly peach. enjoyed with asian sea food steam boat.

  comparing to other nz SB, this wine has suble aroma with smooth mouth feel whereas nz wines tend to be in-your-face.

  Pale yellow. Has similar character with a NZSB but lacks the power that the best NZSB's have. Nevertheless, a very pleasent and refreshing sauvignon blanc. Drink now.
