Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough, New Zealand: Nobilo Icon Sauvignon Blanc 2009


Color: Light straw color with pale green hues.

Nose: Strikingly aromatic with tropical pineapple, backed by hints of citrus zest and pink grapefruit.

Palate: Icon Sauvignon Blanc is a complex wine with excellent structure and weight. Displaying the distinct Marlborough combination of ripe tropical fruit and herbaceousness, it has a smooth sumptuous mouth feel, and a long, lingering finish.

Food Pairing: A fantastic complement to seafood dishes such as freshly prepared oysters, prawn and lemon skewers, or steamed mussels.
