Charming, snappy, lip-smacking.
Charming and tasty, this zingy Savvy is made by New Zealand's first Maori owned winery, Tohu, which was established in 1998. In Maori, Tohu means sign or signature. In all, the company produces not only Tohu and Kono wines (made from vines in Nelson and Marlborough), but farms Kono mussels and makes fruit bars and Tutu cider. They hold firm to the core value that love for the land and respect for the sea must be ever present; to prosper, the environment must be well and healthy, full of life and vitality.
The 2021 is as bright as always. Peaches, passionfruit, lime, snappy green apples and ederflower aromas lead to an energetic and juicy Savvy with oodles of sweet crunchy fruit. It's a joyful little quaffer that's easy to drink and has a lip-smacking finish.
