Dashwood Sauvignon Blanc 2006

Dashwood wines bring the luscious, clean fruit characters of the Wairau Valley into harmony with the flinty, or mineral, characters of the Awatere (resulting from the comparatively cooler but drier temperatures and slightly less fertile soils).

This classically styled Sauvignon Blanc shows lifted passionfruit and fresh tropical notes on the nose. These flavors follow through on to the richly structured palate, which has a long crisp finish.
