Wow! That pretty much sums this one. This sauvignon blanc is the essence of the New Zealand style with tons of citrus - grapefruit and lemon notably - plus fresh cut grass, wet stone and a lengthy finish with notes of jasmine. The acidity was nicely balanced with the fruit.
The color on this was very pale, almost to the point of being clear. But don't let that fool you... there is a lot of stuff happening in there. Had we drank this blind, I would have guessed it to be one of the more expensive sauvignon blancs but this was only $8.99 a bottle! For that reason it moves to the everyday wine list.
Cheers!
