Bob Campbell, MW, September 2011

Concentrated, tangy wine with mineral, citrus and lemon grass flavours with a suggestion of Granny Smith apple. Bone dry wine with assertive acidity that helps drive a lengthy finish. Good food wine.

Quite reductively smoky and flinty. Then tight green fruit with real intensity. Dry and taut and long. Mouthwatering tension. 17.5/20 (JH)

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, October 2012

The 2011 Te Muna Road Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc presents ripe apple and pear notes over touches of lemon zest and fresh grass. Medium bodied with a good concentration of zesty flavors and some silkiness to the texture, it finishes long and harmonious. Drinking now, it should remain fresh through 2014. -Lisa Perrotti-Brown

Stephen Tanzer's IWC, September 2012

Pale bright yellow. Pungent aromas of grapefruit pith, lime, bell pepper, anise and basil. Juicy, dry and penetrating, with superb intensity and thrust to the flavors of grapefruit and tropical fruits. Plenty of tactile palate presence here, given cut by firm acidity. Finishes dense and long.

Firm yellow peach flavors balance the smoky Martinborough soil character of this wine. It’s juicy and restrained, with light, earthy spice that should build into complexity as this settles over the next year.

This smooth, silky white delivers pretty Key lime, Meyer lemon, passion fruit and melon notes that are elegant, balanced and delightfully tangy. all leading to the juicy finish. Drink now. -MW
