Mills Reef Reserve Sauvignon Blanc 2006
Hawkes Bay, North Island, New ZealandHawkes Bay sauvignon always gets a fresh reception in Canada where its slightly tempered herbaceous fruit flavours can entice. Gooseberry and passion fruit are the main components here with a dusting of honey, green apple in the finish. A small portion of the wine is fermented in oak to supply texture to what is otherwise a fresh and vivacious wine made for immediate drinking with a variety of fresh seafood dishes.Tasted: 20 April 2008Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:AB | $28.00 | 750ml | fine wine shops |
