90 pts Wine Spectator / Best Value:
“This refreshing white offers
a clear, focused mix of passion fruit, lime, mango and green apple flavors on a
light, smooth body. Finishes with a succulent juiciness, showing echoes of
lemon verbena.”

Sauvignon Blanc is one small part of the Kono food & beverage company
called Wakatu Inc. They focus on foods, beverage & horticulture products
produced exclusively in New Zealand. Kono is the name of the traditional food
basket woven out of harakeke, a local reed.
Vibrant to be sure, this Sauvignon Blanc is bursting with passionfruit and
grapefruit in the nose, and has luscious texture in the mouth: ripe stone &
citrus fruit character, zesty acidity …a refreshing combination to carry you
through the warm months ahead!
