This Marlborough New Zealand SB has a nose of gooseberryand lime. The palate gives lots of grassy notes, gooseberry and lime. Bright acidity and a long gooseberry finish.

Points for typicity in this New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. Gooseberry, citrus, herbs, grass. All the boxes are ticked. Medium+ acidity and a pleasant mouth-watering finish. Summer salads and shellfish will thank you for this wine.
Tasted: June 2015
This acidic New Zealand sauvignon blanc is full of fresh cut grass and herbal notes. The 2012 vintage of Dog Point's Section 94 has a sharp attack on entry. - Community Wine Reviews
