The 2008 Sauvignon Blanc is refined on the nose: green apple, touch of freshly cut lime and orange peel. The palate is well balanced, crisp and taut towards the spicy finish. Good length. Very fine, although somehow, I prefer the entry level Pencarrow! One of Martinborough’s finest exponents, I think Palliser Estate deserve as much attention as the likes of Ata Rangi and Martinborough Vineyard because these wines deliver time and time again. Their Pencarrow range offers affordable entry-level wines that offer great value.Importer: Negociants USA, Napa, CA; tel. (707) 259-0993; fax (707) 259-1510
