Bought 3b for CAD 16/b (after 5% case discount, before 15% tax) from a local suburban chain; this is #1. Screwcap. Light green-gold; some gooseberry, bit of citrus and kiwi that follow on the palate, good mouthfeel. Good, reliable everyday NZ SB. Might develop some in a year. Quality, age, price in BC: Notable.

Light straw colour in the glass, nose is very pleasant tropical fruit combination, maybe a guava/passion fruit mix, it has a nice acidity, tropical fruits continue from the nose to the flavours. Nice round Sauvignon Blanc, good QPR.

Great weeknight wine, bought a bottle to cook with ($13).
High acidity that paired well with chicken piccata. Notes of green pepper, pineapple, lemon zest, green apples / pears.
Would get again, especially for a warm summer night!
