The wine's aromas leap from the glass, distinguishing it from other Sauvignon Blancs, with scents reminiscent of honeydew, kiwi, grapefruit, and bougainvillea. On the palate, it displays a magical combination of strength and lift, characteristic of exceptional Sauvignon Blancs. Flavors of lemongrass, kiwi, toasted pine nuts, figs, white grapefruit, and curry are evident. Despite its bright profile, the wine boasts a remarkably long finish, with all the aromatic lift one would expect. The savory notes leave the drinker salivating, while the acidity invites another sip.
