Whitehaven Sauvignon Blanc 2013 Wine Review

Courtney Flood rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Pretty aromas of asparagus, lime, and gooseberry and loads of minerailty. Very racy acidity. Great wine with seafood.

Claria Calderone rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Just enjoyed this wine with lunch today. I must say I am a devoted, Kim Crawford Sauvignon fan, but this Whitehaven has me second guessing myself. I think it was the fact the wine is refreshing on the palate with a clean finish which lasts a while. Subtle and clean it its finish, myself and my guests equally enjoyed it with our different meal choices. It's a perfect 'go-to' wine for a luncheon. I sensed peach accents with every sip and a pleasant and not too strong tropical fruit aroma. It's truly a yummy wine to say the least. Thumbs up!

Jane Staples - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Crisp and extra-dry with mouth-watering acidity dancing off against the herbal /grassy/citrus lime notes. Pair with grilled garlic shrimp.
