Might be described as a modern Marlborough Sauvignon with the energy and fruitfulness that comes with ripe passionfruit and citrus, but look a little closer and down-to-earth, classic Marlborough Sauvignon qualities lie at its heart. It is one zesty, herbal, citrussy and passionfruit-ed Sauvignon that will appeal. Orange blossom aromas with citrus, mango, gooseberry, tomato bush, thyme and wild herbs. The palate brings a surge of tangy acidity in tune with citrus, herbs and passionfruit with hints of lychee working in the background. A touch of sweetness on the finish. A modern Marlborough Sauvignon classic in style, approach and delivery.
