Kim Crawford, Marlborough (New Zealand) Sauvignon Blanc 2006

($17, Vincor USA):

As a group, Sauvignon Blanc from the Marlborough region of New Zealand are highly consistent and rewarding.  Crawford’s 2006 goes a step beyond, combining minerality, a grapefruit skin-like flavor and length with the region’s signature bracing citric component.
