A really tasty Sauvignon Blanc with that classic Sauvignon taste. Awesome value.

The wine exhibits generous passionfruit and grapefruit character of this classic Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. ------------------------------------- Winemaker: Ant Mackenzie

Love the big bouquet on this--tropical fruit and citrus. It really pops. Sadly, it's not as pleasing in the mouth. While good, I'm not as fond of it as some other Marlboroughs.

Nice nose with grapefruit and straw. Really awkward mid palate with a lot of acidity. Alcohol really coming through. There are much better NZ Sauvignon Blancs out there. Disappointing.

Very nice. A lot of lemongrass and citrus. Nice and crisp. Went very well with spicy food.
