title: Bird 2007 Old Schoolhouse Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc (Marlborough)
description: Steve Bird, who put Thornbury on the map before selling that brand to Villa Maria's owner, is back with a fairly rich, amply endowed Sauvignon Blanc. It's grassier to smell than to taste, with stone fruit and grapefruit flavors and just a hint of herbaceousness on the palate.
variety: Sauvignon Blanc
designation: Old Schoolhouse Vineyard
