November 29, 2019 - Drank with Cory, Sean Travis Emma and Aline. Spice grapefruit nose. Light yellow. Medium body, then acid and stone with some grapefruit with light finish of chaulk. 8/10. Still fresh despite age.

August 4, 2014 - Classic/Value/high volume NZ SB. Star bright, straw fading to water with hints of green. Medium viscosity, alcohol medium minus (12.5%). Nose has wet stone, grass, lemon pith, green pepper. Palate matches nose, high acidity. Possible pairings: sushi, cocktail shrimp, prosciutto wrapped asparagus. 87

January 18, 2014 - Fruity, strong grapefruit and citrus flavor. Not too tart or grassy, very easy drinking.
