Tasted by:
(at Decanter's August 2017 New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc Panel Tasting, 20 Apr 2017)
Drinking Window: 2017 - 2021
Fresh green nectarine and citrus flavours, although it lacks varietal character and concentration. Slightly edgy and austere, with a high acidity. There is a fleshy citrus and white fruit character on the balanced and well made palate.
