>>...Description : Blend : 35% Chardonnay, 50% Pinot Noir, 15% Pinot Meunier Number of : 50 to 60 different crus Ageing : 3 years >>...Tasting note : To the eye : The brilliant, limpid colour recalls the characteristic straw tones of the Pinot Noir, with glints of amber. It is lively in the flute, with a fine stream of persistent bubbles On the nose : It gives an impression of vitality and springtime scents, together with hints of "toast" and from a variety of flowers honey. On the palate : A bouquet of ripe fruits and citrus create a sensation of plenitude and lightness.

Nice and crisp wine which would go well with food. Nose is very distinct Sauvignon Blanc with intense elderflowers, gooseberry, apple and citrus. Upfront acidity attacks the palate but soon yields to rich fruit flavors that remind me of pear, lychee and pineapple. Visit my website: St. Henry Brewery - brewing 'til the bitter end!

Tropical fruit, some evidence of barrel aging or fermentation. Crisp greenness and acidity with softer notes of pear and melon. Somewhat loose, though.

Okay, not great. Probably suffers for being the first white after the ridiculous Cote-du-Rhone. Floral, with a distinct smell of hotel soap (the little bars wrapped in paper). Decent acidity, but nothing to write home about. probably wouldn't buy it again. Not a bad wine, just...for the same price, buy the Saint Cosme.

Coming back to it after a day, I feel like I may have underrated this wine a bit. It is still too sweet for my tastes, but the wine does posses a nice mouthfeel and flavor profile. The finish is all but nonexistent, however. Wife thinks that it tastes too much like 'perfume'.

Appearance: Pale straw with touches of green. Aroma: Delightful hints of tropical fruits are accented by aromas of citrus and the traditional New Zealand herbaceous notes. Flavor: Ripe stone fruit, citrus and tropical flavors mingle with the soothing herbaceous notes. Nice acidity with a touch of sweet passion fruit add to the full, crisp finish.

Superb Sauvignon Blanc. Definitely one of the stars in the SB world. Beautiful citrus on the nose, no grassy hints. . . grapefruit and lime on the palate and a nice round mouthfeel with a tinge of crisp acidity. A medium to full bodied SB.
