Exceptional(3 Stars) The Washington Post– 2018 vintage

“Savvie” from New Zealand can be aggressive and grassy, or tropical and exotic. It is never boring. This beauty from Hawke’s Bay on the eastern side of New Zealand’s north island seems to hit the alchemy just right: It tastes of wild herbs and tropical fruit, with a bright acidity that lingers on my palate while directing my thoughts to the next sip. Irresistible, that is. Alcohol by volume: 12.5 percent.
