CONCLUSIONS
Quality: very-good
I found the following vivino review useful:
GOODALL AROUND SB-NZ Good bottle of SB form Marlborough region in New Zealand.
On the nose is gentle with abundant tropical fruits.
The tropical fruit is first on the palate with a level of nice sweetness, followed by some citrus and notes of fresh herbs and little cat pea which introduces some clean acidity.
Dry and full bodied with a crisp finish, leaving a sensation of freshness in the length.
