Weka River Waipara NZ Sauvignon Blanc 2008

Copyright © 2010 Bob Campbell. Republishing Info.

5 stars
93/100
Pungent Sauvignon Blanc with a strongly varietal Passion fruit, gooseberry and aromatic herb flavours. The wine has attractive fruit purity and a silken texture. I cannot recall having tasted a Waipara Sauvignon Blanc that tasted this good.
