Über, indeed! Erni Loosen’s Sauvignon does indeed explore the limits of the grassy style of the variety – weedy, crisp, linear, lean, full of herbs and the whole lime, bracing, bordering severe and partly aged in acacia barrels. Although not my favorite take on Sauvignon, it has everything that Marlborough devotees find endearing.
