Redwood Pass Sauvignon Blanc 2008

Charmian Smith, Otago Daily Times, 10th September 2008 (5 Stars)

Wonderfully pungent and saturated with vibrant melon, passionfruit and mineral flavours, a stylish intensity on the lingering finish.  Full-on Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc - as good as it gets.

Made by Vavasour, this tasty wine shows ripe currant, passionfruit and fresh herb flavours with nicely pitched acidity on the palate.

WINE OF THE WEEK

This is a wine for those who like Sauvignons pugnacious and pingent.  Powerful passionfruit, guava and capsicum bouquet, and vibrant passionfruit and gooseberry flavours.  It's crisp, quite dry, with tingling, fresh acidity.

"Aromatic Sauvignon Blanc with classic Awatere Valley flavours of tomato leaf, fennell, green capsicum and passionfruit.  Impressive fruit purity and focus with a lingering finish."  85/100
