SAUVIGNON BLANC 2008 - REVIEWS
4½ Stars
“Fresh and vibrant, this excellent Sauvignon displays lifted passionfruit, feijoa
and lime zest characters on the nose. It’s lively on the palate with zesty acidity
and easy flowing mouthfeel. The crisp, mouthwatering finish is sure to satisfy
Sauvignon fans. At its best: now to 2010.”
- Sam Kim, Senior Wine Judge
“Nicely spicy, fresh grassy Marlborough style with lots of traditional local tang.
An excellent wine pre-dinner with afternoon nibbles or antipasto; refreshing
and tasty. A wine with wide appeal and able to fit in well beside a range of light,
fresh food flavours. No hurry, into 2010.”
- Peter Saunders
“Very bright with lemon water yellow and very pale green hues. The nose is floral,
fruity and refreshing. It shows touches of mineral – a mix of tree and tropical fruits
wrapped in a floral veil. The palate is light, dry, floral and fruity with some herbaceous
notes. Citrus and apple flavours the touches of tropical fruits. Well balanced with
refreshing acidity. Serve with scallops in a light saffron cream.”
- Cameron Douglas MS
“The nose has lovely herbal nuances with hints of capsicum and hay. Sweet, ripe
juicy fruit follows in a clean and fresh style. The outcome is a well balanced wine
that has good fruit weight and a touch of zing. Recommended.”
