Crisp and clean fruit palate. Very linear, nothing is intermixed our clouted. Structured and focused. Full bodied and completely opposite of the new fangled California SB's. Under $40 too!

I would have rated #cloudybay #sauvignonblanc #nzwine #nzwines higher because it's truly enjoyable, if it weren't for the price. Here in Spain it's 29€ that's #bonkers also I think it's one of those #wines where it's so intense, it's kind of difficult to pair

Bold grapefruit, effervescent zip. Perfect for 90 degree weather.

Green onion and celery! Super aromatic, floral, tangy, spicy, with sharper and drier finish than Duckhorn and Chalk Hill SB. #newzealand #marlborough #sauvignonblanc

Jalepeno and cut green grass. M+ intensity and acid. A long lingering finish. Love it!

NZ Sauvignon Blanc with everything I like about NZ SB. Perfect balance between fruit and acidity. Beautiful nose.
