A delicate, pale green/gold. Strongly aromatic with an intense nose showcasing classic Sauvignon Blanc aromas of tropical fruits, gooseberry and dried herbs. The recognizable fresh, flinty green characters and minerality of Awatere fruit underpin a tropical and citrus spectrum. A full flavoured wine rich in tropical fruit and herbal notes that reflect the attributes of the upper Awatere Valley vineyard. The mouthfeel and palate weight have been enhanced by maintaining a restrained acidity coupled with a perfectly balanced amount of residual sugar. The wine has immediate appeal and is marked by a flavor intensity that creates great length in the palate.
