Drylands, Marlborough (New Zealand) Sauvignon Blanc 2007

($15, Franciscan Estate Selections): Although the piercing–almost electrifying-acidic signature of Marlborough speaks loudly and clearly in this wine, there is more going on.  There’s a welcome depth and weight that gives it substance and texture that balances its engaging pungency.  It’s a versatile wine for anything from spicy Asian fare to unadorned seafood. 89 Michael Apstein May 12, 2009
