This wine’s nose is insane: fresh pineapple, dried mango, white grapefruit and lemon, with subtle dill, an underlying chalk and wet stone minerality, and secondary whisps of sourdough and creamy vanilla. It’s layered and complex, drawing you in. The palate is a dry and concentrated flavour bomb, with crisp, high, finely integrated acidity. Taut lime and grapefruit lead, followed by pear skin and subtle gooseberry, with hints of lemon thyme and a gentle roundness through the mid palate, framed by a chalky yet lightly creamy texture. The finish is long and salivating. Outstanding balance and structure will allow it to develop with age.

This is not your standard New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, but it is a must-try. I love this wine!

Enjoy now - 2030.
