A dry white wine with a bite!, This review is from: 2014 Cameron Hughes Greenlip Marlborough New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc 750 mL Wine
This is a dry white wine with a bite. I didn't let it air long and as a result the first sip was bitter. I then poured the wine through a wine aerator and it softened the flavor of it. The wine has a taste of dry wine with a fruity taste like citrus and grapefruit with a slight hint of oak. We drank the wine with a fish dinner and it was a perfect match.
If you are looking for a sweet white wine this is not the one for you. This is a bold dry wine that goes well with food and it has a lingering taste of a tangy citrus flavor. We drank it cooled and that is the best way to consume a wine like this. I recommend that you let this wine air out and soften the favor. The longer it aired out, the better it tasted.
After dinner we have some cheese and then a Ghirardelli mint chocolate and both the cheese and the chocolate brought out the flavor of the wine even more. It was a dark chocolate and it was not super sweet to conflict with the taste of the wine.
I like dry wines and this reminded me of wines that I have gotten in California and in South Africa. I have found good dry white wines are hard to find and I liked this one. To be honest my wife did not like the wine as one of her favorites. She prefers sweeter white wines. If you are looking for a good dry white white then this is one that you will like. If your are not looking for a dry wine you will find a difficult time to justify the price. I like this wine and I rated it at 4 stars.
I was supplied a sample for tasting and evaluation. A review was not promised to the supplier but I promised to provide a fair and honest review.
