Pale clear golden straw. Notes of grapefruit and passionfruit, lined with white chalky minerals and a distinctive nose of Marlborough grassiness. Slightly floral secondary aromas, with a tinge of honey. Harmonious blend of primary and secondary aroma. Fresh and crisp on entrance, sweet on the initial palate with a nice lemon-lime acidity. The wine transitions quickly into a smooth, dry medium length finish. The finish also features a touch of grapefruit bitterness that is nice, soft and palatable. Overall a zesty, freshing and well-made wine, good with seafood or to drink on its own.
