6 x Te Ora Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc '08 - $13.33/btl

Te Ora, roughly translated, means wellbeing in Maori An apt description given this light crisp and pure dry white. Produced by Quarry Road Estate from 100% Marlborough fruit, this unoaked, aromatic style has won friends worldwide and this is a lovely example from the vigorous 2008 vintage. Passionfruit, grass with some herbaceous overtones on the nose, the palate follows with tropical fruits over a crisp and lively acid backbone. Drink this excellent Kiwi dry white well chilled at a summer BBQ, matched with marinated Octopus skewers.
