Availability: Direct from winery here and private wine shops
Cost: $24.90
Alcohol: 12%
Date Tasted: July 17th, 2019
Tasting Notes: Opens with a subtle, Loire-esque scented nose with a focus more on fresh, fleshy fruit and rounded savoury aromas than the more in-your-face, pungent, New Zealand style of Sauvignon Blanc. This subtlety is juxtaposed by a bracing wave of Champagne-worthy acidity on the otherwise, similarly flavoured palate where added notes of herbs, spice, minerals and lemon zest add complexity. Pair with Scallops or Oysters and enjoy this wine in its youth or over the next few years. Drink now-2020.
