My 2 go to Kiwi sauvignon blancs used to be oyster bay, and if a special occasion; cloudy bay. Found my new fav priced in the middle of the these 2. If you are a fan of whites from new zealand, i reco giving this one a try.
This is a go to Sauvignon Blanc at our house.it is definitely citrus flavored on the pallet with a heavy grapefruit influence. It also has depth with flavors of herbs, ripe fruit and lime. It is high in acidity, but we'll balanced and has great length.I did not find this wine to be sweet or have notes of SO2.
Smells like cake, tastes like gin with a bit of a fizz to it. Interesting but hardly worth the high ratings and the price.
