  Pale straw with slight greenish tinge. Aromas of tropical fruit / grapefruit dominate the acidity, but well integrated wine. Lush, generous, tropical.

  Medium body, pale golden yellow color, very aromatic, passionflower, melon and citrus aroma, citrus (mostly red grapefruit and ripe mandarins), melon and minerals on the palate, lemon on finish, long finish, very fresh and charm wine, balanced and complex, lovely acidity, food friendly. Well associated with clams or shrimps. Serve 8º - 12º. Drink now.

  In my view, New Zealand sauvignon blanc is the only great wine style outside Europe. This is a stellar one. Powerful grapefruit, sweet lychee, vegetal notes, and minerals. The persistent finish makes it seem like you've just eaten a grapefruit.
