Wine Review: This wine is one of the best Sauvignon Blanc’s we have tried in several months. This pale yellow wine opens with a huge grapefruit like bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied crisp, clean, balanced, and displays delicious grapefruit and light lime flavors. The finish is dry and very refreshing. It lingers a bit as well. This wine is everything you expect from a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc and more. Pair it with a nice swordfish steak with lemon and enjoy. - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Wonderful notes of grapefruit, kiwi, fig, litchi, and hay greet us in the aroma. The classic Marlborough racy green and herbal qualities are kept in check, but linger with solid background complexity. The middle mouth is very round and full, yet is perfectly balanced with the acid on the finish. The wine speaks delicious with mouth-watering flavors of crisp lemon and pink grapefruit. The finish is rich and lingering, and the aftertaste begs for just another sip and swirl.
