Well!....have not tasted an NZ Sauvignon Blanc in over 5 years....mainly because they all tasted ALIKE . NOT this one. On nose: a bold clean nose of white grapefruit and hints of dry jasmine. On palate: follow through of above flavours in addition to light minerals, bracing acidity , keffir lime , Seville orange and notes of fresh thyme......the colour of water with glints of platinum in the glass.....no oak....done up in stainless steel....far superior to many of the more ubiquitous SB producers in New Zealand.....well done.

Among the best of the Malborough SBs. A little creamier and more orange fruits including cantaloupe
