"Green mangoes and papayas on the nose as well as gooseberries and blackcurrants. It's full-bodied and tropical, but more on the green fruit side and with good restraint. Delicious now."

"Elderflower, crushed tomato vine and citrus aromas mingle with sage on this lovely white. Showing restrained elegance, the vibrant palate offers tangy grapefruit, gooseberry and pineapple alongside crisp acidity. Abv: 13% Kerin O'Keefe July 2024"

"Abbazia was founded in the town of Novacella in 1142 by the Augustinian Order of Canons Regular. The Augustinian Abbey currently works with about 200 acres of vines to craft wines that deliver great quality for the price. This Sauvignon Blanc has delightful aromas of freshly cut grass and citrus and the palate brings soft notes of peaches, grapefruit, and herbs. The acidity adds great structure, balanced by a slight roundness on the palate."
