New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc covers a wide spectrum of flavor profiles, more so now after leaning hard into herbaceousness as a group at large. This wine fits right into the center of what’s possible, showing the best attributes of regional character without reaching too far in a single direction. No doubt a masterful blend of several vineyards that brings grass, gooseberry, citrus and stone together in a refreshing, vibrant harmony. Well done! A Platinum Award Winner at the 2018 San Diego International Wine & Spirits Challenge.
