Reviews and Ratings

Bill Wright Sommelier rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

A great tropical fruit and citrus with a little background nuttiness on the nose. The tropical fruits follows through on the palette. Full crisp acid.
Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Lots of aromas, including tomato plant leaves, stone fruit, pineapple and lemon. Dry, soft citrus and peach on the palate, but lots of acidity to keep the flavours bright. Perfect for shellfish and white fish, anything with citrus.
Rachelle O'Connor rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

There is lots of tropical fruit and tomato leaf on the nose, with juicy citrus, green apple and vine ripened tomatoes on the palate. This is a dry white with balanced acidity. It is produced from the cool climate Aconcagua Costa region, lovely accompaniment to shellfish and spicy dishes.
Craig Kuziemsky rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Tropical fruit, lemongrass and herb notes on both the nose and the palate. Nice crisp acidity. Pair with salmon cakes or Greek cuisine.
Gwen Barton rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Light, well- balanced with crisp acidity. Pleasant white with initial , I have to say it, "cat pee" nose. Typical flavours of lemon, citrus (grapefruit) and grassy herbaciousness come through prominently. Great value wine.
Ashley Tyla WSET rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Juicy acidity, gooseberry, lime, herbaceous, grapefruit rind. Lots of tropical fruit and a crisp long finish. Awesome every day sipper, patio and/or summer wine. Pairs well with light salads, avocado ceviche, seafood of course and cheese! :)

If you're looking for a sauvignon blanc that rivals New Zealand for less money then this is it.

Enjoy! @ashleytyla #ashleytyla
Valérie Dufour - Accredited Sommelier rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Grapefruit nose. Nice acidity, nice fruit. A little fuller than its little (cheaper) brother. Very refreshing and a good value. Would pair well with seared scallops.
