Classic Marlborough Sauv under the Nautilus 2nd label. It’s quite ripe really, loaded with passionfruit, the grassy herbaceousnsss swapped for genuine fruit. It’s correct, the acidity is soft enough, and the persistence is spot on. Affordable Sauv done well. Best drinking: now. 17/20, 90/100. 13% $23. Would I buy it? A glass
