Petersons Family Vineyard 2008 Sauvignon Blanc

Variety: Sauvignon Blanc
Region/G.I.: Although claiming to be Hunter Valley on the label, most likely this is actually from the little known Northern Slopes, New England Australia wine region
Colour: Lime Yellow
Alcohol: 12.5%
Bouquet: Asparagus and a little grassy. 
Flavour: Middle weight with very pleasant citric flavours and a hint of mineral extract. Pleasant complexity and nice length. Not showing ageing in nose or flavour profile.
Points: 85 (3+7+11+7+7+50)
Notes: At $15 (~300 Kc) this is a tasty and interesting wine. Keen to try some of their reds which I have also been sent through the wine club
