Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc

Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc has been the crown of creation of the Marlborough onslaught on the rest of the world. The 2011 Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc is special, too, although not quite in the same class as some previous years.

The flavours are herbaceous, but not overly so. Hay and asparagus rather than green grass. The fruit is lime and some guava, I think, rather than gooseberry. The best is the dry finish.

If you must drink Sauvignon Blanc, you could do worse than this Cloudy Bay, in fact you probably would.

To check high-quality wine and champagne, you possibly can pop in the http://www.classewines.com/t-chablis.aspx, or you may just examine this.
