| Verdict | Grapefruit and passion fruit give this crisp Sauvignon Blanc clear varietal character. Lively citrus acidity balances light tropical-fruit sweetness, with a… | Stellenbosch Sauvignon Blanc shape without the sugar trap: gooseberry and lime, bright citrus on the palate, clean lingering lime on the exit. |

| Likeness | Citrus acidity gives the ripe fruit a wine-like balance rather than a juice-like sweetness. | Very good: chilled, it reads as Sauvignon Blanc rather than generic nonalcoholic white. |
