Giesen - Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc

The fruit and aroma spectrum shows a greater depth of tropical notes with a distinct greener profile running through as well. This is an aromatic blend displaying aromas of elderflower, kaffir lime leaf, pink grapefruit and dried herb. The palate has a vibrant citrus focus with considerable fruit concentration finishing crisp and bright. 'ONE of the big names in New Zealand sauvignon blanc and bound to please fans of the style. This general-release version is wildly tropical with a generous squeeze of lime juice zesty flavours and a note of passionfruit, of course, leading its upfront sauvignon expression. If you want to explore more, the Giesen label also has specialist offerings that raise the sauvignon blanc bar.' - Adelaide Advertiser, Adelaide 26 Sep 2012, by Tony Love.
