2000 TE KAIRANGA Sauvignon
Blanc, Marlborough
   
The
1999 vintage of Sauvi from this Kiwi producer was a blockbuster and this
one isn't far behind. It features a delicious bouquet of sweet pea,
quince, grapefruit, herbs, asparagus and peaches! Again, it's bright and
bold on the palate, with jazzy, spritzy citrus flavors taking command,
and suggestions of nectarine showing up on the lingering finish. It's
all done in the "in your face" New Zealand style. These guys
know how to make awesome Sauvignon Blanc. If you can find it, buy it by
the case.
About $13.
