Pale lemon with aromas of tropical and citrus fruits, typical from NZ. On the palate simple flavors of peach, grapefruit, lemongrass and citrus zest with grassy notes. Medium finish ending with fruit and mineral citrus character.

I love a good Sauv Blanc and this is just perfect. Lots of grapefruit and lemon zest. I crave the next sip! And it’s so beautiful out in central Florida for this time of year.

Very refreshing and aromatic wine. Citrus and honeysuckle aromas. Tropical citrus grapefruit and melon flavors. Great value.

Pear, strawberry, and apple. Very acidic and full flavored, bordering on aggressive. At first I wasn't sure I liked it, but it grew on me.

Meh. Will not buy again. If I’m offered a glass I’d say yes. Not dry, but leaning in that direction.

Slightly mineraly & tart with a semi-dry green apple fruity finish. I probably am describing this completely wrong as I am no connoisseur so don’t listen to me, this is really only for my own personal reference. My new fav, it’s 🔥

Delicious! Sweet, tastes just like a much more expensive bottle of Cloudy Bay!
