Matua Valley Sauvignon Blanc 2006
Pale straw green in color, with aromas of pungent mineral, lemon citrus and typical Marlborough sweat. The palate is intense and linear; classical Marlborough acidity supporting powerful defined fruit that lingers gracefully, enveloping the whole mouth. A wonderful match when served with New Zealand green shell mussels, served with a coriander broth lightly spiced with chili. Wine Spectator Serves up ripeness, vibrancy and very good concentration to flavors of grapefruit, gooseberry, mineral and grass. Tart lime skin notes linger. Drink now. Score: 89. —Daniel Sogg, December 15, 2006.Wine Enthusiast More open and giving than the upscale Paretai bottling, with fruit that's forward and enjoyable, ranging from passion fruit to mango and from nectarine to melon. Sauvignon's trademark herbaceousness is here, but in the background, as an accent rather than as the centerpiece. Score: 89. —Joe Czerwinski, May 01, 2007. |
