Aotea by The Seifried Family Sauvignon Blanc 2020
The mouthfeel is rounded with a touch of sulfide complexity. Powdery, ripe acid characters with a mineral character provides a backbone for the ripe fruit. This is a grown-up, complex Sauvignon Blanc. It's more forward and more complex, it's not just about bright zingy fruit.
The wine picked up a Gold medal at the Austrian Wine Challenge (AWC) in Vienna making it three golds for this wine so far and I predict many more to come.

Aroma
The aromas from this wine are riper, more elegant and rich than it's more straightforward stablemate - the Seifried Nelson Sauvignon Blanc 2020. It also has less juicy-fruit characters but is still quite punchy.
