Louis Sauvignon Blanc 2011

Lots of tropical fruit, litchi, passion fruit and guava flavours mix with fresh garden herbs on the nose, and follow through on the palate. The palate is broad for a Sauvignon Blanc, and has great fullness, with softness and length on the aftertaste.

Sushi, asparagus spears with Hollandaise sauce and freshly caught crayfish.
