General: The last of my Vintage Cellars branded purchases. This was well received by afternoon visitors
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc
Region: Marlborough, NZ
Alcohol: 12.5%
Bouquet: This is a typical gooseberry flavoured wine with a nose to match
Flavour: Fresh, crisp gooseberry flavours. Generous.
Points: 82
Notes: This is done well and a very typical NZ styled wine. Uncomplicated and pleasureable drinking. At $13.00 (195 Kc) is represents good value but there is a huge choice to choose from. I was also surprised as this is the first 2009 wine I have tasted. One final selling point is that its production is Carbon Neutral as this is something the Kiwis are adding to their marketing portfolio.
