Passion D'etoiles

Dog Point Vineyard

Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2023

Delectable Wine
9.3

The 2023 Sauvignon Blanc is light in body but dense in concentration because of low yields. It's almost silvery in color and restrained due to hand-picking, leading to pure grapefruit, passion fruit and nectarine, all delivered with focus and punch. The finish is long, precise and sinewy. $23.00 (Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous, July 2024) — 4 months ago

Oyster Bay

Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2022

Pale yellow in color, with a very stone fruit-forward aroma. Strong notes of tropical fruit to the taste, suggesting pineapple and passion fruit. I enjoy that there are no oak notes in this. — 8 months ago

Château Tour de Mirambeau

Cuvée Passion Red Bordeaux Blend 2000

JKT
9.0

Another stranded loose bottle but very nice! Very mature indeed but not over the hill, with the enticing route black fruited nose, smoothness on palate and good finish. Pleasantly Surprised. — 5 months ago

Babich Wines

Black Label Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2023

Delectable Wine
9.1

The 2023 Sauvignon Blanc Black Label is a well-judged style. It is nicely textured with decent substance through its bright, firm core. Attractive gooseberry, elderflower and passion fruit flavors combine well. Five months on lees rounds out its edges and lends flesh to the light-bodied palate. $16.00 (Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous, May 2024) — 6 months ago

Château d'Yquem

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 2001

Always a treat to have yquem. Nice amber in the glass. Lots of passion fruit on the nose and palate. Quite full and deep. Delicious - but, acid a notch under what I was hoping which keeps this from being higher. Still a lovely wine with a very long finish. — a year ago

The Fidelio Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc 2019

Gorgeous nose of ripe apple, pear, spring flower blooms. Great mouthfeel with bursting flavors of peach, pear, passion fruit, apple, pineapple, and a bit of a tart lemon. Drinking fantastic here in 2024. — 7 months ago
