A bit sulfury at first. My favorite Sav Blanc in a while. I guess the semillon makes it.

A blast from the past. Fell in love with this wine while in NZ for my honeymoon in '03. Still dig it!

Surprised to see an average rating of below 9.0 on this wine. I think it is a very unique and distinctive wine that had great texture and signature exotic flavors and phenolics. Complex but challenging, love it.
