2010 THE BLACK CHOOK  SAUVIGNON BLANC
Brilliant light straw water like colour with watery hue. Lifted aroma of passionfruit and ripe gooseberry followed by some green apple and lime notes. The palate displays flavours of gooseberry, green apple and citrus with a crisp flinty finish. The wines crisp acidity giving it a zesty mouthfeel. Lighter across the palate and drier than most New Zealand examples. Aftertaste of gooseberry and citrus.
