The full, concentrated palate brims with pure fruit, with an underlying racy, citrus acidity that provides a good backbone to the wine.
2012 Yealands Single Block M2 Organic Sauvignon Blanc, Awatere Valley Marlborough, stylish sancerre-like . Blackberry leaf, gooseberry and guava aromas. The palate is taut. Lemon meringue pie meets a stone wall, and a whole lot more. Clean yet rich and complex. Big bang for the bucks.
Concentrated and quite pure wine with strong gooseberry, cut grass, tomato leaf together with an underlying suggestion of tropical fruit and passion fruit flavours plus a suggestion of chalky minerality. Assertive wine with a very distinctive character.06 OCT 2012
