  This wine has kept remarkably well. The slight acudty that was detectable 7 years ago has mellowed, leaving a clean, fresh , feuity and slightly sweet white with a long finish. Compares very favourably with other Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc's.

  Crisp, clean, citrusy. Great to pair with baked chicken.

  Straight up, big NZ style. Good for cocktail hour and I put a splash in a risotto and it really brightened the dish.

  Mildly carbonated on the palate, monochromatic citrus, rather high acidity. Tastes like a cheap wine, which it basically is. Not awful, but not a good example of a NZ sauvignon blanc.

  Pretty hard to beat this value for money.
