Ribbonwood

Size

This Sauvignon Blanc is all about "crunchy" green fruit and citrus. It delivers punchy aromas of grapefruit and crushed tomato leaf, with a palate that is zesty and "high-definition." It’s a clean, classic Marlborough style with a lingering, stony finish.

Ideal for The Purist

Your mouth is a "cut-seeker." You likely have a lower sensitivity to acidity than the average person, meaning you need more zesty, sour punch to feel satisfied. Conversely, you are highly sensitive to sugar and viscosity; thick, sweet textures feel "cloying" or suffocating to your tongue. You crave the physical sensation of salivation - that "electric" feeling on the sides of your jaw is your primary measure of a wine's quality.
