{screwcap, 13%} Simple wine; a spash of tropical fruits hefted along with a dash of sugar, and relying almost entirely on the alcohol for it's structure, being almost acid free. One sip is enough.

A good value Tassie Sauv Blanc. Light straw in the glass with an aromatic floral, tropical fruit, citrus nose that really comes through.

Wine'n'Things Tasmanian tasting (Coast, Hong Kong) : Exoctic fruit nose; melon, peach palate. A little soft.

{screwcap, 13.5%} Pretty mainstream sauvignon. A little bit of the gooseberry/asparagus qualities, not so sharp as the old style Marlborough offerings, but thankfully lacks the passionfruit-sweet aspect that seems so prevalent nowadays. Simple palate; not too acidic but not flabby either; decent unthinking quaffing drinking for a hot day (not Hobart today, incidentally!)

Subtle hints of melon on the nose. Grassy, tart lemon citrus with a slight creamy aspect over piercing citrus. OK for food.

Bright clean fruit. Nice gooseberry along with some tropical fruit flavors. Bright, with clean acidity.
