Tasting Notes
Light to mid straw in colour with a touch of green. The nose shows lifted gooseberry and passionfruit with a slight grassy edge. The palate is flesh and clean with good weight and a fresh acid finish that is very Sauvignon Blanc.

Cellaring
Drink now. This wine is best enjoyed chilled whilst young and vibrant.
