Monkey Bay Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough 2009 - Pale lemon in colour, with green tints and brilliant clarity. Tropical fruit-driven aromas of pineapple and gooseberry complemented by hints of pink grapefruit, capsicum, and cut grass. Monkey Bay Sauvignon Blanc is crisp and refreshing, with vibrant flavours of
ripe grapefruit, gooseberry and pineapple. Fresh, zingy acidity dominates the palate with some pleasant fruit sweetness providing some weight to the palate. Enjoyable on its own or paired with chicken and seafood dishes.
Monkey Bay wines take their name from a small, beautiful bay tucked away on the coast of Marlborough in the South Island. A legendary monkey was once believed to inhabit this secluded spot.
