Torlesse Sauvignon Blanc -2004 (WE-44269)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

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. 1 Note

Mohua Riesling -2007 (WE-108287)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

This off-dry Riesling features an alluring nose of petrichor (wet stones) and balanced flavors of lime and apple with a hint of peach. Finishes with hard acids and a faintly bitter edge. 1 Note

Mt. Difficulty Pinot Gris -2000 (WE-10475)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

For a crisp, fresh white that dances with fish or shrimp, look no further. The wine saw some malolactic fermentation and even less barrel fermentation, but both are noticeable in the round body. As far as aromas and flavors, it’s citrusy, emphasizing grapefruit and orange rind. In many ways it’s akin to Sauvignon Blanc; steely and lean, but hardly weak. 1 Note

Mt. Difficulty Riesling -2000 (WE-10476)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Lemongrass and Granny Smith apple aromas introduce chalk and floral flavors. Zingy and tangy in the mouth, it closes long, with a little pineapple-lemon sweetness and minerals. 1 Note

The Crossings Sauvignon Blanc -2009 (WE-111975)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

The Crossings continues to be a reliable source of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc at a reasonable price. The 2009 seems almost sweet in its intensity of ripe nectarine fruit, but there’s enough grapefruit for balance and just a trace of herb on the finish. 1 Note

Chancellor Estates Sauvignon Blanc -2000 (WE-14502)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

This is a typically snappy New Zealand Sauvignon featuring mildly vegetal aromas along with the required touch of cat pee and grapefruit. Bold lemon and tangerine flavors comprise the citrus palate, which leads into a tangy acid-driven finish full of lemon and grapefruit. Tart, juicy and pleasant. 1 Note

Mohua Riesling -2008 (WE-129279)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

A solid effort from this value-oriented brand, offering a bit of sweetness and breadth to match apple and lime flavors. The mouthwatering finish shows just a touch of bitterness, helping to balance out the residual sugar. Drink now. 1 Note

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

A simple, direct, fruity expression of Central Otago Pinot Noir, with ample black cherry fruit and a bit of weight on the palate but not much nuance. 1 Note
