    An excellent year for Marlborough and Sauvignon Blanc, 2021 delivered light crops with a long ripening season resulting in concentrated wines. An impending shortage of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc means that supplies are likely to run dry much earlier than usual so get in quick to grab this bargain.
    Brilliant pale straw colour with a watery hue. Leaping out of the glass are pungent scents of herbaceous gooseberries and passionfruit followed by some green apple and grassy asparagus like notes. Possessing terrific intensity and a mouth watering flavour profile of ripe gooseberry and passionfruit over subtle asparagus and herbaceous grassy elements, the palate well and truly over delivers for its price point. Finishes dry with crunchy acidity and a long, super scrumptious aftertaste. Outstanding value.
