Score 16.5/20 · Drink 2011-2014, Jancis Robinson MW, Feb 2013
Opulent bouquet of tropical fruits pushes itself right up your nose! A very nose-y kinda wine. Tiny bit sweet but lots of enjoyment and masses more concentration than the Marlborough average. (JR)

10% of the 2010 Sauvignon Blanc was fermented in new and used 500L French oak puncheons and this portion was aged 10 months in the puncheons. It offers notes of fresh grapefruit and lime juice over sage, chalk dust and lemon peel. Medium bodied and crisp in the mouth, it gives a great concentration of citrus flavors in the mouth with a long mineral and herb laced finish. Drink it now through 2013. Importer: H2 Vino, Chicago, IL.
