From New Zealand’s spiritual home of Sauvignon – Marlborough. A silvery lemon-green in the glass. Powerfully perfumed with grapefruit, whitecurrant, passionfruit, lemon peel, acacia, celery, fern and daisy. A burst of pithy acidity leads to a bright, linear length to the palate. A hint of tannin, like apple skin and then a rounded texture that balances the piquancy of the fruit, adding complexity and depth. An elegant expression, with the structure in place to age well, and go very well with food. A chalky, energy-filled finish. 92pts
