From an area just outside Martinborough, this is a rather restrained Sauvignon Blanc, one dominated by melon and white grapefruit. It finishes a little soft, but with a quick herbal burst of flavor.——J.C.(9/1/2009)—— 85

Distinctively smoky and grassy on the nose, marked by fume notes and bold gooseberry aromas. This is full, ripe and round in the mouth, bursting with melon and pink grapefruit flavors that finish long. ——J.C.(12/15/2006)—— 90

Full yet steely, with melon, passion fruit, peach and a smidgen of smoked meat. Quite the powerball, with aggressive flavors of nectarine, peach and citrus. Finishes bold, with mouthwatering acidity. Imported by Robert Bath Imports.——J.C.(7/1/2005)—— 90
