quite tropical fruit nose. In mouth the wine jumps right at you with an acidic twinge and then flavors of mango, peach, and a finish of pear fruit.

Intense citrus aromas of lime, lemon passion fruit and cut egram. Excellent in the mouth repeating the aromas, long finish. Suggestion of harmonization: trout with passion fruit sauce.

Quite pale yellow. Semi sweet sauv blanc - not as rich as some other Saint Clair sauv Blanca. Easy to drink and probably a good choice for those who prefer drier whites.

This could be the stereotype of New Zealand sauvignon blanc. Passionfruit and pineapple dominate. Very tropical fruit but some acidity to balance. Decent for the price, but could be off putting if you are not ready for a tropical fruit bomb.
