Nice wine. Typical of many good NZ Sauvignon Blancs. Good fruity flavour. Well balanced and a pleasure to quaff. Interesting modern label reveals the wine contains milk!
This is a wonderful wine and excellent value.

There is much subtlety in this wine. It is not one of those tropical fruit SBs from Marlborough. It is more grassy and herbaceous without being too sour which is the trap many growers and blenders fall into when aiming for this type of wine. I guess that is the benefit of being a single estate product. A wonderfully balanced wine!

This is a very pleasant wine with nice citrus and a decent length finish and I agree not too sweet. Don't listen to the self titled 'expert' who clearly is nothing of the sort. Ara wines are always reliable and at this price, great value.
an excellent wine

A really enjoyable wine that can be drunk with any food or simply by itself
Dilute acid

The worst Marlborough s blanc I have ever tasted, and I have tasted many! It has little fruit and therefore the acid overpowers. Yo are left with a sharp watery finish. Not my idea of fun. Am returning the other bottles to the store.
Solid, and not too sweet, Marlborough

Well balanced, and excellent for the price. Some of the lower end Marlborough SB's can be a little sweet, but not this one.
A nice gentle Sauv Blanc

Classic NZ sauv blanc at a reasonable price. A bit more understated than many, with a smooth palate. Great everyday drinking with chicken, seafood, or Fish & chips!.
