“Its classy, fresh, crisp, slightly prickly style, harmoniously balanced , with minerality and a hint of sweetness; very enjoyable”.
Karl du Fresne
"Stylish wine, distinctive, 'clean', intense. Seductive aromatic bouquet. Fresh yet ripe palate. Frequent award winner, generally fights it out for top position with 'Cloudy Bay'. Indeed it is frequently awarded at the International Wine Challenge. "

WINEMAKER’S COMMENTS
The 2009 is coming together well with all the elements of a wine at the top of its game and with plenty of exciting development still to come.
A very satisfying bouquet with tropical fruit, plenty of citrus, gooseberry and typical Marlborough herbaceousness. The slightly salty, minerally note on the nose shows up the fruit in the wine.
The wine is full bodied, has good intensity, ripeness and nice passionfruit and herbal notes on the back palate. Lots of room for development.
The wine will develop with bottle age, but for classic Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc character we recommend drinking this wine at its peak (2011-2012).
