* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Starts off with a whiff of diesel or kerosene, but also fruitier-spicier notes of Golden Delicious apples and dried cinnamon. Medium in body, with dry, broad, apple-like flavors that turn tart and citrusy on the long finish. Imported by L & R Imports LLC.

Mainly melon and fig here, without the green notes or pungency that New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc has become so noted for. It’s a pleasant, medium-bodied white that should prove versatile at the table for just that reason.

This light-bodied Riesling offers hints of fresh limes and crushed stones on the nose, followed up by bright citrus flavors of lime and grapefruit. Tart and brisk on the finish, making it a mouthwatering apéritif.

Plump and mouthfilling, this Sauvignon Blanc offers ripe pink grapefruit and gooseberry flavors that veer toward red berries and stone fruits, yet maintain a sense of focus thanks to crisp lime and grapefruit notes on the finish.

Light in color and light in body, with pretty cherry flavors and hints of herb. A bit simple, ending on a dusty, tactile note. Imported by McDevitt & McDevitt Importers.

Starts with promise, showing fresh scents of stone fruit, melon, passion fruit and green pepper, but they don’t quite blend properly on the palate, where there’s juicy tropical fruit but also a crisp, hard layer of acidity that tastes metallic on the finish. Imported by McDevitt & McDevitt Importers.

Stony and minerally on the nose, with some lime and pear notes that hover in the background. Despite its off-dry nature, it’s similarly austere in flavor, offering up only modest fruit to go with its dry, minerally notes. A bit of a ’tweener, not sweet, fruity and luscious, but not fully dry and bracing. Imported by McDevitt & McDevitt Importers.

A light, quaffable Pinot, with cola and caramel dominating the nose. Flavors are similar, picking up earth and herb nuances; this is not a terribly fruity wine, but delivers some interesting flavors nonetheless. Imported by McDevitt & McDevitt Importers.

This medium-bodied Riesling comes out of the chute dominated by an annoyingly persistent struck match aroma, then offers admirably concentrated citrus flavors and a tart, angular finish.
