title: Goldwater 2001 Dog Point Sauvignon Blanc (Marlborough)
description: Passion fruit and melon vie for attention on the bouquet with grassy, vegetal, herbaceous scents. In the mouth, citrus and dry Asian pear flavors intermingle with additional grassy, asparagus tones. The acids on the back end are intense, so the tang and zip on the finish is powerful. The biggest problem here is a persistent vegetal quality that won't let up.
variety: Sauvignon Blanc
designation: Dog Point
