| Likeness | The Marlborough aroma survives: ripe passionfruit and citrus, present and aromatic. The palate stays fresh on a light frame, and passionfruit trails through a citric close. Varietal likeness, not the weight of a full bottle. | Sauvignon Blanc in the herbal grapefruit and the tart close. Grapefruit, lemon, and pineapple lead, then bright citrus and tropical fruit with fresh herbs. The herbs keep the grape in the glass. The fruit is vivid. The finish is the stricter part. |
