Continues to be my favorite Sauv Blanc. Initial notes of peach, gooseberry and pineapple, followed by a light green apple and clean citrus finish. I was afraid the 2020 (a reportedly great vintage) would be part its prime, but it still impresses.

Nice to see that the bottles now have a reasonable weight. Thanks to @apple1813 for pushing the producer in that direction. Let's keep going until all bottles are lightweight plastic. The next question is if people like me should really by bottles from as far away as NZ.

Light yellow color. Great nose on this tropical and grassy. The palate is not as good as the nose but still pleasant. High acid makes it a bit unbalanced. Overall one of my go to SB.

A very nice and a little heavier sauvignon blanc. Not only crisp and light as many sauv. Blancs but still with a nice freshness

Similar to my previous note--a terrific New Zealand style SB!
