2021 Single Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc, Matawhero, Gisbourne, New Zealand

Pale straw with a hint of gold. Tropical fruit, passionfruit and a subtle herbaceous note. On the palate melon, stone fruit and subtle passionfruit. The wine finishes with a richness and fullness seen only in good Sauvignon Blanc.
