TASTING NOTE: An intensely expressed sauvignon, the bouquet shows passion fruit, feijoa, grapefruit and sweet basil characters. It is juicy and vibrant on the palate, and delivers excellent fruit power and plenty of tasty flavours, leading to a lengthy succulent finish. Score - 93 (Sam Kim, wineorbit.co.nz, Aug. 2016) |
