Description
Clear with a hint of green at the edge. The nose is aromatic, floral and lifted with tropical notes of green mango, stone fruit and citrous flower melded with some herbaceous nuances of fresh-cut grass. The palate is fresh crisp and lively showing a lovely concentration of citrus and passion fruit, fragrant florals, and fresh herbs. The wine is succulent with great mouth feel and persistence leading to clean crisp finish supported by fresh acidity. This is an exciting and vibrant New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc.
