Tohu

Tohu Mugwi Marlborough Reserve Sauvignon Blanc 2010
N: Enticing, juicy array of fruits with peach, mango, passion-fruit,wild yeast, guava and red apples leaping from the glass; the bouquet alone will attract many to this wine. Some sweet hay notes add complexity.


P: Everything the nose suggest is on the palate with the medium+ acidity keeping the juice youthful and vibrant. A lovely texture and long finish.
Probably not a wine for everyone - it is very specific, but will add depth and complexity to a select few wine lists - if they're quick! 
89 Points.
By the way Mugwi Macdonald is a Kaumatua (Elder) who has long held a position within Wakatu (Company see http://www.wakatu.org/).
