Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
Holly Bruns rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Everything I love about Sauvignon Blanc is in that bottle. There's something 'green' about it with sharp citrus aromas and a grassy, asparagusness. Crisp, but not so-so light on the palate, with a long, juicy finish, this is a little more like a New Zealand version of the grape, than a French version. Distinctive and a little pungent.
Greenish-straw. High-pitched, spicy aromas of lime pith, green apple and white pepper backed by subtle herbacity. Dry and racy in the mouth, offering incisive citrus flavors and a lashing of mint. Finishes on the firm side and with impressive clarity and spicy persistence. I like this wine’s uncompromising character. Score: 89 Source: Josh Raynolds, International Wine Cellar
