New Zealand

New Zealand

New Zealand is best known for its unique style of Sauvignon Blanc. Mark Oldman wrote in his \"Guide to Outsmarting Wine,\" \"New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc is like a child who inherits the best of both parents -- exotic aromas found in certain Sauvignon Blancs from the New World and the pungency and limy acidity of an Old World Sauvignon Blanc like Sancerre from the Loire Valley.\" New Zealand also produces quality Rieslings and Pinot Noirs.

07 Craggy Range Te Muna Road Suavignon Blanc "Sourced from Martinborough, 28% whole bunch pressed and matured in 10% new oak with four months on lees, the 2007 Te Muna Road Sauvignon Blanc exhibits an attractive nose of cut grass and lime, then concentrated palate with grassy overtones leading to a citrus, off-dry finish." 89 points. — Wine Advocate	19.99	qty:
06 Cloudy Bay Pinot Noir, Marlborough "The 2006 Pinot Noir has a lovely nose with superb delineation: black cherries, talcum, plum and a touch of violets (far superior to the somewhat disappointing 2005). The palate is medium-bodied, very well-balanced with very good acidity. There is a natural quality to this wine, a personality that I find difficult to find in other Cloudy Bay releases. Crisp cherry, strawberry and a little iodine on the finish, nice and crisp, this is a great Pinot Noir that should drink over the next 3-5 years." 90 points. — Wine Advocate	39.99	qty:
