Pale lemon with a green hue appearance. The bouquet is an enticing amalgam of tropical fruits, blackcurrant, nectarine, lime and grapefruit underscored with complexing hints of jalapeno and gooseberry. The palate is a full flavoured, elegantly structured wine, with flavours of blackcurrant, boxwood, citrus and stonefruit. Attractive crushed leaf and mouth watering wet river stone notes enhance the lingering, textured finish. This wine is a perfect accompaniment to fresh seafood, including Marlborough's famous green-shell mussels. The wine will also pair nicely with summer salads, poultry and goat's cheese.
