Pale greenish straw in colour. Rich aromatics of fresh lime juice, lemongrass, grilled citrus and ripe nectarine. Complex and intriguing. The palate is concentrated and dense, yet retains remarkable linearity and focus. Zesty citrus, stone fruit, herb and floral flavours fill the mouth, a fine chalky mineral texture tightens and focuses the finish. The wine finishes long and powerful, crisp, clean and dry.

Vibrant red fruit aromas with some spicy vanilla, cinnamon and savoury, earthy notes. The vibrancy carries through to the palate where succulent fruit weight is complemented by soft, round tannin and a long, dry, flavorsome finish

Crisp and powerful, well balanced wine with intense aromas of gooseberry, passion fruit and citrus flavours. This light to medium bodied aromatic wine is a great match with salads, seafood.

Hues of pale straw sparkle in the glass with lively Sauvignon Blanc aromas of citrus pineapple and a hint of passionfruit. The palate is fruit driven with lovely citrus and tropical flavours producing a long clean finish which is fresh and crisp. Fabulous for any occasion.

The wine is dry, but not austere, with a generous mouthfeel.

Hailing from Marlborough, it shows loads of fleshy, spiced plum fruits on the nose with a hint of roses.
