Chasing Venus Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 750 ML

It has beautiful aromas of grapefruit, lychee, and lime. The fresh flavors of guava, lemongrass, mango, and citrus hang on the palate and linger in the finish. Producer Information Chasing Venus is part of the Matchbook Wine Company family of brands. This wine is produced from grapes grown on small family farms in the acclaimed Marlborough appellation. The McLean vineyard is located in the heart of Marlborough where the free-draining alluvial soils contribute the tropical and ripe green aromas, while the Comely Bank is all about zest. The 2017 is a lovely pale straw color with intoxicating aromas of citrus and passion fruit. Vibrant, mouthwatering flavors of grapefruit, pineapple and lime zest fill the palate. Nice minerality on the refreshingly long finish. In 1769, Captain Cook took command of the HMS Endeavor, setting sail for the Pacific to study the passage of the planet Venus across the disc of the Sun. Little did the world know, this was a ruse for Cook’s true objective: He’d been commissioned by the British to find the mysterious and elusive “Southern Continent.” On this voyage, Cook became the first European to explore New Zealand, and he did eventually find Australia. Quite the accomplishment for a captain who was just out Chasing Venus.
