The Crossings Sauvignon Blanc 2005

  • Area: New Zealand, Marlborough
  • Grape: 100% Sauvignon Blanc
  • Alcohol: 13%
  • Rating: Black: 88 Dilettante:89

Description: This one has a screw top but don't let that put you off -- no jug wine here. This straw colored beauty has a nose of herbs and flowers. With a bit of glycerin, it's full and round in mouth. Flavors of cut grass, grapefruit, and a bit of peach are enhanced by light acidity. We both liked this one. For under $15 it was a great find.
Food Pairing: Seafood, Crab brings out a hint of ginger.
TV Pairing: Deal or No Deal
