Winery Review: From the sun-soaked shores of Marlborough, a balance of land, sea, and sky. Tastes of juicy citrus and the scent of fresh-cut lemongrass. Flavors of passions fruit, guava, kiwi, all come together for a citrus framework.
Wine Folly: pg. 165 mentions the unique taste of the sauvignon blanc white wine with describing the wine as string herbaceous flavors that are derived from compounds called methoxypyrazines. On pg.27, the book talks about the color-coding of the white wine as being a medium yellow.
My Review: Strong smell of herbs along with a fruitiness that can be described as green apple. It tastes like a green apple with a lack of sourness to fulfill a smooth aftertaste. Hints of acidity with a sweetness of light white wine.
