Review

 Anyone that needs a break from New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc should try this bottle. The wine has a wonderful bouquet of fresh lime, lush tropical fruit, and smooth honey. It has a nice, fresh acidity, but a few slight notes of sweetness keep the wine from being overly crisp. Very well suited for grilled chicken or white fish, it’s perfect for a summer BBQ.
