Sauvignon Blanc ‘Giunta’
New Zealand, Wairarapa
Sauvignon Blanc
Tropical notes of pineapple, melon, gooseberry, and pink grapefruit with subtle hints of guava and lychee. On the nose, the subtle aroma of salt air hints at the vineyard’s coastal proximity. The palate begins softly, opening up to bright citrus flavors akin to starburst candies, finishing with a refreshing dryness reminiscent of crisp peach. A balanced and nuanced experience, capturing the essence of tropical fruits and the seaside with finesse.
