WineDiva's Review

Value, delicious, lip-smacking.
Serious value and seriously tasty, this snappy 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 2020 is as bright as expected. Expect vibrant aromas of honey and passionfruit, peach, elderflower, lime, snap peas, green apples, pineapple chunks and orange blossoms. It's zesty and pristine; peach and lime flavours dominate. It has a lip-smacking character and zesty finish. Deliciously easy to drink.
