This Sauvignon Blanc is the style of SB that is
tailor-made for my palate, citrus and tropical fruit, clean, crisp, refreshing
and un-oaked. This wine opens up with aromas of pink grapefruit, lime,
gooseberry, pineapple and pine nettle. On the mouthfeel, medium bodied (with
alcohol coming in at 13%), a bit edgy, intensely flavourful, with zesty
acidity. Clean and refreshing finish with flavours of citrus-passion fruit and
a bit of residual sugar coating your mouth. Just as beautiful as when I tasted
this SB at the New Zealand Wine Fair here in Ottawa last May. Glad I bought
more than one bottle, strongly recommended. Score 91 points.
