Allan Scott Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2004

Allan Scott Sauvignon Blanc 2004 arrived Friday, and this was the first time for me to try this wine. This is a delicious New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, which has tropical fruit (pineapple, melon, passionfruit) and tart acidity, plus some herbal and green notes, nice body and a crisp lively finish. This bottle had a screw cap. At approx. $16.99 retail, this is a good buy in New Zealand whites, and should be included in a case of mixed crisp white wines.
