"Bright and fresh, it's instantly appealing on the nose showing Granny Smith apple, apricot, sweet basil and lemon zest aromas. The palate delivers excellent fruit intensity together with juicy acidity, finishing lingering and super tasty. At its best: now to 2025" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Sep 2022
"Nice and pungent with a savoury edge, a core of fresh citrus and tropical fruits then a lifted green herb quality. There’s no mistaking the youthful power and signature of the variety and on the palate, fruity at the core, luscious, salivating and just dry on the finish. Flavours of citrus and tropical fruits along with apple and a savoury mineral quality coat the palate. Refreshing, balanced, well made and ready with best drinking from late 2022 through 2027" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Sep 2022
A riot of ripe citrus and tropical fruit aromas. Loaded with juicy rock melon, lychee, vibrant stone fruits and lemongrass, the mouth-watering finish on this one deserves some serious savoring.

"Moderately intense sauvignon with tropical fruit, passionfruit, guava, pineapple, lemongrass and green capsicum flavours. Crisp, punchy wine" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Sep 2022
Bright aromatics with hints of feijoa, kiwi fruit and ripe citrus tones. Distinctive yellow capsicum on the palate backed up by an array of tropical fruit. The wine is dry, with a mouthwatering fine acid line and flavoursome length.

1 x Framingham Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2022
Awarded 94/100 Points: NZ Wine Rater, Sauvignon Blanc Tasting 2022
Awarded 93/100 Points: Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, May 2023
"Funky, complex and vinous on the nose with aromas of red capsicum, lemon rind, and wet stones, punctuated by sulphide-derived characters of gunflint and burnt match. A full-flavoured, rather dramatic wine to taste with a rich, viscous, textural mid-palate and a powerful, punchy, engaging finish. Bravo" NZ Wine Rater, Sauvignon Blanc Tasting 2022
"Aromatic, pungent, pure, ripe, herbaceous and fresh bouquet. Classic and varietal. Flavours on the palate include fresh apple and lemon. there’s a lime and cape gooseberry along with fresh basil and thyme. Acidity is high , core fruit flavours touch the palate in all corners, a lovely example with ripeness and varietal pungency. Best drinking from 2023 through 2029" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, May 2023
Expressive aromatics, with flint, meyer lemon, and a subtle short bread note. A well-rounded palate with volume and mouthfeel. Flavours of passion and stone fruit, sweet herbs and a fine boned acid finish.
Alc: 12.5%
1 x Greenhough 'River Garden' Nelson Sauvignon Blanc 2020
Generous, bright aromas of floral citrus, fresh passionfruit, melon, spice and a nettly, crushed herb fragrance. The palate has an appealing breadth, a succulent core of soft citrus and rock melon suggestive of sweetness in spite of being genuinely dry in style. A fine, mineral acidity balances and refreshes this fruit-rich, almost creamy mouthfeel which finishes with a hint of aromatic spice. Organic and Vegan.
1 x Craggy Range Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2022
Pale straw with a green hue. Immediately pronounced varietal nose with passionfruit pulp, gooseberry and lime zest aromas all present. The palate is fresh yet plentiful. Tropical mid-palate with a sparkling lemon acid line ensures the wine finishes with a moreish-ness that encourages a second glass. 1 to 4 years from vintage.
