Herbaceous stone fruit and citrus aromas. Grass dominates the palate with an undercurrent of tart citrus and stone fruits. Medium alcohol, crisp, medium(-) body, and medium finish. Excellent paired with baked chickpeas and feta w/tomatoes. String QPR.

- Light gold color and aromas of cut green grass. It's somewhat balanced and has flavours of grapefruit with a medium body. Narrow texture with a medium finish.

This is a slightly above average SB. What makes this a weekday no brainer is the price, $12.

Lemon, grapefruit, and orange citrus notes with round tropical overtones and some fizz for a lively and delicious wine.

Good sauvignon blanc from South Africa. Good fruit and acid. Similar to a NZ SB but not as fruity with a bit more complexity. Enjoyed the bottle with salmon. Would drink again. Good value.

Very nice, in a restrained but well balanced and citrusy style that falls somewhere between the subdued CA and exuberant NZ stereotypes. Light pale color with mandarin orange on the surprisingly long finish. Very good value; would buy again.
