 "This classic Marlborough Sauvignon walks a line between fruity and vegetal, with notes of grapefruit and lemon oil alongside grass and that slightly sweaty, feline funk typical to this style. There's what feels like a touch of residual sugar on the palate and textural creaminess balancing plenty of zingy acidity and boisterous fruit. Drink now, with a pool or beach in sight if possible. - CHRISTINA PICKARD"
