 100% Sauvignon Blanc. The nose is expansive, complex and elegant. Guava, orange blossom and lime zest combine to give a lifted yet refined aromatic experience. The wine begins broadly in the palate, seeking all available tastebuds, and then expands further with notes of passionfruit, ripe pepper and candied lemon rind throughout the mouthfeel. Texturally the wine is full-boded with accompanied by sublime acidity that counterpoints the abundance of complex flavors. Superb on its own or with your own choice of cuisine.
