I have to applaud the wonderful NZ Sauvignon Blanc-style of this bubbly. Everything you love in a Kiwi Sauv Blanc - snappy aromatics of grass clippings, jalapeno, passion fruit, gooseberry, elderberry blossoms, a dollop of honey and sweet golden pineapple. The palate echos the nose with great typicity - a creamy texture, persistent bubbles and crisp citrus-y finish. A year round option to pair with shellfish or creamy chevre.
