"This is on the green side, but not overdone, offering grassy, herbal aromas and a touch of citrus fruit. Attractive cut grass and lime notes mark the medium-bodied palate and extend through the finish. Drink now."

"Plenty of gooseberries, pineapple, and bright citrus notes emerge from the 2017 Sauvignon Blanc and it’s racy and juicy on the palate, with both good acidity and richness. Brought up all in stainless steel, it’s a pure, crisp, rock solid Sauvignon to enjoy over the coming couple of years."

"In the Waipara Valley, north of Christchurch, this Sauvignon Blanc ticks many of the country's typical style boxes. It's fragrant and zippy, with heady fruit-bowl aromas of lemon rind, peach, guava and pineapple along with a touch of green bell pepper—a refreshing summer sipper. - Christina PICKARD"

"Slightly pungent and grassy on the nose, the 2019 Sauvignon Blanc remains green and herbal on the medium-bodied palate, combining those elements with hints of passion fruit and lime, perhaps a bit of underripe pineapple. It's streamlined and refreshing, with a lingering finish. - Joe Czerwinski"
