Massive amount of grassy aromas and green notes. From two bottles. The herbal aromas and flavors overpower the wine for me. This is usually a favorite SB for me, but this vintage is way off IMO. Not recommended.

Strong tropical nose immediately. Taste is big on acidity , fruit notes , it’s aggressive. A get grassy flavors like green peppers The acidity stays there for the finish. It’s a good wine. Not my fav immediately upon immediately. Rated a 93 If u like big sweeter version of the sauv blanc.

Let it hit the air for about 2 hours. Tropical notes are jumping out of the glass. Softer tropical notes , not very aggressive. Imagine sweet bananas if that makes sense. A soft smell but pungent in its on right. No grassy notes at the time I drank it. Semi acidic citrus flavors that carry throughout the finish. As the wine warms it takes on more what I know sauv blanc to smell like in general. The softness that I described above changes to a more aggressive state but not overdone The Lime n lemon acidity just sits in your mouth. Nose starts to smell of green apples

Sharp and intensive with grapefruit and green chile notes. Really classic NZ sav blanc.
