Perhaps no wine announces its origin with more authority than Sauvignon Blanc, particularly when that origin is New Zealand. This wine screams its origins with G&G – gooseberry and grass – and does so in a completely convincing way without straying into what some writers politely call “feline aspects.” Satisfying from start to finish, with a nice grapefruit-y pop at the end. When the weather heats up, this will cool things off beautifully.
