Sauv Blanc actually. Smells of baked golden apples, grapefruit, wood, and toast on the nose. Dried apples and candied lemon peel on the palate with notes of vanilla custard lingering on the finish. Goes well with most food. Slightly over-oaked in my opinion but a good value — 5 years ago
Выпито 01.04.19 в Dana complex . Безумный, нежный и очень минеральный совиное блан из долины Марльборо. — 6 years ago
Aromas bounding out of the glass. Hay, fresh cut grass, grapefruit, and lemon rind. Sav Blanc on steroids. Fresh and tropical mouthfeel - lime zest, citrus and grassy flavors. Solid acidity, classic New Zealand. — 7 years ago
Dave picked this up for me in Denver for our hotel room. My first Nelson Sauvignon Blanc. Similar to Marlborough with a bit of punch. — 7 years ago
Nice bright flavors. Very enjoyable for the price. Part of our NZ research and the only wine from Nelson I have seen here. Surprised it is bottled in Sonoma...? — 8 years ago

Favourite from the Waimea Estate. Full and fruity, taste lasts long on the palate. — 8 years ago
Lovely Pinot, showing tension and restraint. Delicate red berry fruits, as well as some savoury elements and a hint of oak sweetness. elegant tannin structure and balanced acidity that really holds the wine together. Excellent wine which will undoubtedly improve with age. — 8 years ago
Very good stuff hiding under extreme reduction - the smell of eggs and sulfur that won’t give way without a fight. Give this time and you’ll find a beautifully assembled Chablis like mix of Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. Highly acidic and weighty from some neutral oak exposure. — 5 years ago
French bubbling onion broth, with fungal asymmetry the partnering haberdasher’s cheese motif, and pictographs and hieroglyphic bubble letters the font-lacing. Caramel-orange and yeast with hibiscus and dried lotus slices. There is a peppermint coolness to the backnote and a clean, bok choy sweetness. Tastes of caramel and verdelho-Madeira, and lemon, orange and grapefruit interplay mutating into a cilantro and Vidalia, that ultimately return to the yeast, with marigold petals swimming in a malt and hop extravaganza. #mikkeller #nelsonsauvin #dryhopped #deproefbrouwerij #beer #bier #birra #biere #cerveza — 6 years ago

I would drink this every day. Floral delight. Orange wine technically. Perfect summer wine and my favorite of the Kindeli selection I’ve tried so far this vintage. — 5 years ago
