$16.95 – Yalumba Organic Viognier 2017
I’ve been a fan of this winery’s Y Series Viognier in the past, but this recently released organic version is a step up. A green-tinged straw in colour, this is a meaty 14.5% abv. vegan-friendly white. There’s a floral bouquet of tropical fruits, fennel, jasmine and...
$19.95 – Oyster Bay – Pinot Grigio 2017
Oyster Bay Chardonnay has always been one of my go to whites and never a big fan of Pinot Grigio. I must say that pinot grigio has changed a lot in recent years. Or perhaps I have just upped the ante on selection. Fresh and fruity yet embraces you with solid...
$17.95 – Matahiwi Pinot Gris 2018
A double gold medal winner at the 2018 China Wine & Spirits Awards, this fresh, dry North Island, New Zealand Pinot Gris presents stone fruits and lemon zest on the nose, and warming tropical fruits and minerality on its fleshy body. Pretty flexible when it comes...
$19.95 – Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc
What do I think: I should probably never drink Savignon Blanc again! At least not from New Zealand. No gooseberries in this one but tasted the same as the others that I have tried recently. Crisp grapefruit juice if that’s your thing. Kind of spoiled an otherwise...
$20+ CDN – Misty Cove Wines Estate Series Sauvignon Blanc 2019
What do I think: Gooseberries suck in wine! Unless you like something that tastes like sparkling grapefruit. Came as part of an online 6 Pack – no more gooseberry wine. What the Experts say: This refreshing and tasty drop is sure to please with a bouquet of...
$15.95 – Villa Maria Private Bin Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough 2019 – ONE AND DONE
What the Experts Say: Pale straw colour; intense aromas of gooseberry, lime, grass and asparagus; dry, medium bodied, crisp acidity, and flavours of bell pepper, gooseberry citrus; clean, crisp finish. What do I think: Not a big fan of Sauvignon Blanc and this one...
$17 – Matahiwi Estate Sauvignon Blanc 2018
Changing continents on you…a “bar-goon” from down under… What the Experts say: Towering over the competition, this stand-out Sauvignon Blanc is sophisticated and subtle with sweet fruits and a touch of basil. Lovely and lifted with a fresh, rounded texture. What do I...
$17.95 – Villa Maria Private Bin Sauvignon Blanc 2018
Like a reliable old friend, this Sauvignon Blanc keeps delivering. Its ripe, tropical punch of fruit from the Wairau Valley meshes beautifully with the bell peppers, jalapeno peppers and lemongrass of the cooler Awatere Valley, with lime skin notes tying it all...
$16.95 – Marisco The Ned Sauvignon Blanc 2018
Eye-opening grapefruit, gooseberry and fresh-cut grassy notes and a crisp acidity suggest well-made traditional New Zealand-style sauvignon blanc. But the always-surprising plush texture of The Ned holds it on the palate for a long, pleasing finish. Pair it up with a...
$17.95 – Babich Malborough Sauvignon Blanc 2018
At once fresh and lively in that classic Malborough style, with zesty gooseberry, tropical citrus and passionfruit, but with a little malolactic fermentation and production style that ensures a fuller, softer Sauvignon Blanc than typical for the region. The...
$16.95 – Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc 2017
Highly recommended by a number of people so I had to give it a try and at 17 bucks how far wrong could you go! What the Experts say: Extra Dry, intensely flavourful style of Sauvignon Blanc: think gooseberry, pea pods and passion fruit. Vivid and refreshing, it pairs...
$18 – Matua Hawke’s Bay 2016 Sauvignon Blanc
Sourced from more than 100 vineyards across Malborough, there’s a tropical melange of passionfruit, gooseberry and sizzling pineapple and a palette-cleansing citrus, but a little time spent sitting on light less has imbued this Sauv Blanc with a degree of texture....
$17 – Marisco The Ned Sauvignon Blanc 2016
This is not your classic New Zealand-style sauvignon blanc—it’s better. Yes, yes—there are the usual pronounced aromas of passion fruit, citrus, green pepper and green apple. But there’s also a smooth, creamy mid-palate and medium acidity that lends it an appealing...
Auntsfield Single Vineyard Chardonnay 2019: $29.95
What you can Expect: a refreshing, full bodied classic chardonnay. Overpriced, but then it did come from far far away.
