| TASTING NOTE: It is intensely aromatic on the nose showing grapefruit, red apple, feijoa and lime zest characters. The palate delivers lovely fruit power and succulent mouthfeel, backed by bright acidity, providing excellent vibrancy and length. A very likable sauvignon. At its best: now to 2018.
