Konrad Sauvignon Blanc 2010 rich & supple with grapefruit, lemon zest & dusty herbs on a seamless, persistent finish
Tasting
Notes
• A brilliant, pale straw green colour. This is a ripe style of Sauvignon showing elements of passionfruit, mango, melon and stone fruit, as well as subtle yoghurty complexity from a whisker of barrel fermentation. The palate if soft, full and dry taking richness from the excellent fruit weight achieved in the vineyard. Classic Marlborough Sauvignon flavours of tropical fruits and underlaid by a vein of exotic fruits reminiscent of guava and lychee. The extract of the wine fills the mouth while acidity keeps the palate alive through to a clean, dry finish.

Grapefruit, lemon zest and dusty herbs on the inviting nose. Rich, supple and easygoing, with good intensity and breadth. Offers an intriguing hint of mustard seed. Finishes gentle, seamless and persistent.
