Color: Pale yellow

Nose: Good fuller green fruit flavors like kiwi and other white tropical fruit. Less citrus and strong grassiness from more standard NZ SB.

Palate: Similar to the nose, this is not a zingy Sauv Blanc, but maybe even more in the Napa style with a slightly fuller mouth with crispness but not zingy, racy acidity. All tropical fruit all the time, with little to no lemon or other citrus. Good!
