  Good solid SA Sauvignon Blanc with nice rounded balance beyond just pure herbaceousness

  Beginning to show some signs of age - I do not think this example of SA Sauvignon is built to last as long as some - still has refreshing acidic edge - a nice wine but drink up

  Tropical fruit, melon, lemon nose and a very slight smokiness. Palate shows a pleasing burst of juicy tropical fruit and a flinty finish.

  Tropical fruit, mango nose, slight minerality. Delicious, juicy green apple, gooseberry and tropical fruit palate. Quite round, not to acidic but still fresh. A sound, enjoyable wine with a medium long finish.

  Loved this. Rapier like acidity. Lime and spritz on the palate, had with a prawn and pea risotto, and was liked by all.
