PEGASUS BAY, SAUVIGNON SEMILLON, WAIPARA, 2008

In this traditional Bordeaux blend the Sauvignon blanc has given a complex range of exotic aromas and flavours suggestive of lychees, paw paw, Turkish musk and passion-fruit, backed by hints of gooseberry and dried wild herbs.  The semillon has added complementary lemon and lime flavours and helps fill out the mid-palate providing weight and depth.  The wine has a backbone of tangy minerality and acidity which helps dry out the palate and give it a zippy finish.
