Solid Sauvignon blanc. Amazing fruits and berries yet retains some dryness. Smooth finish, no lingering bitterness whatsoever. Better than a Kim Crawford, maybe not quite a Cloudy Bay. $17.99 at Piazza

Crisp, refreshing, tart and citrous notes. Its notes and body remind me White Haven Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough.

Great aroma and flavor, both are intense but there is depth and purpose to all of the components. Very long finish, alcohol is a little biting but overall very nice

I loved the assertive grapefruit and Meyer lemon that hit first. There's also medium acidity to balance the fruit and chalky, steely dry minerality. Flowers and herbs sneak into the aroma. Tropical fruits develop. This was an excellent match for roasted halibut and asparagus with spaghetti simply dressed with olive oil, garlic, and cilantro.

Love this Marlborough Sav Blanc. Beautifully balanced sweet stone fruit and tangy acidity.
