  This may not be as mind-blowing as it was a few years ago, BUT it's still an impeccably balanced, fresh, crisp perfect NZ white. The usual gooseberry, passionfruit, a touch of tropical fruit, a bit of racy Pouilly Fume acidity. The screw top triumphs once more!

  Dill pickle, flint, pink grapefruit & tomato leaf on the nose ~ The palate is light to medium bodied with moderate + acids with flavours of grapefruit rind, freshly cut grass, ripe granny smith, pineapple & a bit chalky on the finish ~ A really nice NZ Sauv Blanc with nice intensity & length

  I am raising this to an outstanding rating because it has added complexity. More notes than before!
