- This vintage's wine is an interlaced blend of three Wairau valley vineyard sitesand one from the flavor-intense Awatere. The former supplied gooseberry,tropical fruit, celery and fresh-cut herbs while the latter provided green nettlesand the support of minerality and crisp acidity. Vibrant flavors in this Sauvignon work well with aromatic foods - even thosethat are acidic and spicy. It's a natural with fresh fish and shellfish in a widerange of preparations, from sushi to grilled, poached or richly sauced. Bridgeingredients - such as herbs, capers, green olives, curries, read more...sour cream, goatcheeses, and citrus squeezes - connect this multifaceted Sauvignon to a widerange of seafood and poultry.

- Clean and crisp. Citrus and fresh cut grass on the nose. Very drinkable.
