Dégustation

Lovely, brilliant, pale yellow colour with green highlights.
Good intensity with white flower, tropical fruit, and grapefruit nuances. The Sauvignon Blanc varietal character comes through on the aftertaste.
Starts out quite smooth and elegant, with notes of fresh citrus and gooseberry, going on to reveal hints of flowers such as acacia blossom. Good balance and acidity, with a beautiful long finish.
