I know it&#8217;s not very wine geeky, but I really like it. And this is one of the best. I bought a case of the 2014, and it went pretty quickly, which is something that can&#8217;t be said for all my case purchases. I find that if you buy 12 of the same wine, often by the end of the case you end up wishing you&#8217;d bought just six. Not this stuff.<\/p>\n<p>The 2015 is currently tasting just beautiful. It&#8217;s so delicate, aromatic, pure and precise, showing none of the clumsy flavours that Marlborough Sauvignon can sometimes have when it&#8217;s not handled very well. It&#8217;s a pristine wine and I&#8217;d buy it to drink now for this lovely aromatic precision, although this will <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/new-zealand\/older-new-zealand-sauvignon-blanc-can-it-age-should-we-cellar-it\" target=\"_blank\">no doubt age quite well<\/a>, also.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dog Point Sauvignon Blanc 2015 Marlborough, New Zealand<\/strong><br \/>\nSo aromatic with lovely pear and passionfruit. Very floral and open, but with delicate grapefruit, too. The palate is crisp and transparent with lovely lemon, pear and lively grapefruit characters.
