This Sauvignon Blanc offers aromas of grapefruit, mango, passionfruit and melon. On the palate, the wine's texture is smooth and inviting with classic Marlborough flavours including ripe bell pepper and tropical fruit. Crisp acidity rounds off an elegant structure. Pairs perfectly with seafood, salads and lemon vinaigrette dressings.
Very attractive bouquet of ripe, fleshy tree and tropical fruits, fresh herbs, gooseberry and wet pebbles.

Balanced, well made and ready to drink from 2022 through 2025.
