Colour is mid straw, with lemon tones. Aroma of ripe, lush tropical passion fruit and grapefruit, with undertones of citrus and bell pepper. The palate is dominated by the clean and punchy flavours of lush, tropical fruits. A clean, focused acidity lends to the wines great length and freshness.
"We recommend drinking our 2009 Sauvignon Blanc while it is young and fresh, but the wine is capable of developing nicely over the next two years if carefully cellared". Winemaker, Sam Small
Too new for a review but here's what was said about the 2008 vintage, we're expecting the 09 to be even better!
Peter Forrestal's "Quaff 2010 The Best Wines In Australia Under $15 recently judged the 2008 with a "Bloody Good" rating and it was the equal highest rated Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc in his book and the best priced Marlborough Sauvy!
"This Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc has subtle yet positive characters, pure & ripe tropical flavours of Guava, gooseberries & lychees, finishing with zesty, cleansing acidity. Exclusive to Get Wines Direct." "Bloody Good!" Peter Forrestal, Quaff, 2010
Sourced from premium vineyards at the Wairau and Awatere Valleys of Marlborough, this wine is a shining example of why Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is so big the world over.
Perfectly matched with summer salads, poultry and seafood, such as Marlborough's famous green shell mussels.
