Sileni Estates produces its Sauvignon Blanc with an emphasis on a riper style of Sauvignon Blanc with good palate weight. Their use of Hawke's Bay Semillon in all of their Sauvignon Blanc adds a richness to the wine that helps to tame some of the overt aromatics and provides flavour complexity that ensures a food friendly style.--Winemakers Note Light and tangy, on the tart side, but polished and refined, offering Asian pear, grapefruit and lime peel flavors that don't quit on the finish. Drink now. 50,000 cases made.--Wine Spectator
