Comments about Newharbor 2008 Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough, NZ:

Cometh the region, cometh the wine. Sauvignon Blancs from Marlborough in New Zealand have long been noted for their quality & this one surely doesn't disappoint. On the nose its like peeling a fresh grapefruit. The uncanny combination of vibrant fruit, balance, & topped with a crisp finish is what sets the Marlborough sauvignon blancs apart. The perfect wine for shellfish or for a hot summer afternoon when you just want something refreshing to linger with.
