Drinking Window: 2023 - 2027
This classic example of Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough's Awatere Valley sub-region shouts with distinctive aromas and flavours of blackcurrant, lime and tomato leaf and is a little more reminiscent of Loire styles than the ripe passion fruit punch of Wairau. Focused acidity courses to a crisp, dry finish.
