Über herbaceous from the get-go; you know you are in Marlborough country. Pungent and arrestingly aromatic in snow pea, pea shoot, garden herbs, green peppers threaded in citrus notes, grapefruit pith and light florals. This is a vibrant, fully energised Sauvignon shaped by racy acidity. Reveals an equally racy palate in fresh herbs (sage, dill) and citrus. The presence of sweet passionfruit pulp brings an extra flavour note before finishing grapefruit pithy tart with just a hint of sweet lemon pastille.
