Kuban. Novorossiysk PGI, Krasnodar region, Russia, 12.5% vol., 900

Grape variety: Sauvignon Blanc

This wine is lemon green in colour. An appealing, tropical nose of pronounced intensity with classic varietal aromas of tropical fruit (especially passion fruit) green pepper, lime, fresh-cut grass and green apple. This light-bodied wine is balanced, fresh and zesty on the palate with crisp acidity and well-integrated alcohol, though with less intensity on the palate than on the nose, and a medium finish. Ready for drinking.
