Only had a small glass of this. Aromatic nose, gooseberries, straw, grapefruit, cat's pee. Rich palate, but not sure there was sufficient acidity to balance the depth? Maybe I drank it too warm.

Judith's Over the Hill and Under the Weather Event (Judith's House): Light gold color. 2.5 oz pour over 30 minutes. Bright grapefruit on the nose and palate. Good length. Plenty of energy and tartness, touch of grass on the nose, don't get it on the palate really. If you like big, in your face grapefruit, here's your wine. It was better than many NZ SB, but was one dimensional to me. 87-88pts.

Nettles, grass, apples, lychees on the nose. Bags of ripe sweet green fruit, but finishes sharply dry. Rich in the mid palate, actually feels very big for a sauvignon blanc. Needs food, but not sure what.

Very strong aroma and taste of prickly fruit -- not unpleasant per se, just not quite sure how to pair this. Fairly sweet for a sauvignon blanc. Don't dislike this, but need to find the right pairing to really enjoy it.

High acidity, wonderful combination of lemon zest, grass, and gooseberry notes. Very enjoyable wine.
