The 2019 Mohua Sauvignon Blanc opens with a typical and nicely done Sauvignon Blanc aroma of tropical fruit, a bit of grassiness, lemon and more.
Taking a sip reveals quite a luscious and tasty wine full of zesty apple, lemon, lime and other citrus fruits plus nice touches of tropical fruit and good acidity. Very refreshing, this is a solid buy at this price.
It ends with a dry, crisp finish. This is a quite quaffable stuff!
