March 28, 2021 - A good representative of NZ style of Sauvignon Blanc. The aromatic nose hits you ripe grapefruit, gooseberry, white flowers, and canned peas. Confirmed on the palate, along with a wet stone/rock inorganic minerality. As others have noted, the sour grapefruit is quite puckery on the palate. So be prepared.
Overall, lacks depth and complexity but is fully enjoyable on an 80 degree sunny afternoon.2 people found this helpful 1,841 views
