Simply delightful. A ripper vintage, though it's still in the same style of Kiwi Sauvignon Blanc we've come to know and love drinking. The nose on this wine is pretty amazing and seriously intense. A couple of swirls and it is musk & passionfruit that is at the forefront. The tropical notes are out in force, with delicate rockmelon and honeydew mixing things up a bit.
The same fruit is all there on the palate, but balanced out by crisp acidity and a refreshing mineral undertone. It was inevitable that New Zealand Sauvignon. Blanc would start to gain some traction world-wide and we'll start seeing the prices go up as a result. So enjoy it now at this price while you can!
