New ZealandWine Enthusiast 89 pts - Joe CzerwinskiA terrific value, the 2009 Arona Sauvignon Blanc features bold aromas of gooseberries and pineapple and assertive flavors of Ruby Red grapefruit and crushed tomato leaf. It's medium-bodied, with a suprisingly long finish for a wine of this price.
Description:Arona is a Maori girl's name meaning ?colorful?. Softer, instantly approachable and with more ripe fruit flavors to balance the traditional intensity of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. The grapefruit nose opens to a full and fruity mouthful of passion fruit and pineapple. Fruit is sourced from our Muritai vineyards and from 2 smaller vineyards in Blind River.
