OK - less info on this one as it's better known and it's my second attempt. I've had this in the cellar for about a year and a half and the first I've had for a year. Lovely, light coloured, grassy smelling (actually it doesn't, it smells like Sauvignon Blanc), tangy but smooth, typically pleasant New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. Opened it up on Saturday night as a treat for being a good boy. Tasted better than a year ago and I was expecting a good wine. Chilled to around 8 or 9C so that the flavours weren't frozen out it stayed with me for the evening and we had a lovely time together. 90 KB points. Looking forward to the 2001 coming soon.

2001 Kicks butt. Better vintage generally.
