Nobilo, Marlborough (New Zealand) Sauvignon Blanc “Regional Collection 2009

($12, International Cellars):  David Strada, the US representative for New Zealand wines, raves about the 2009 vintage.  This wine shows why.  It has the easy to recognize zesty grapefruit-like tang of Sauvignon Blanc from the Marlborough region.  But it also has a weight and intensity that fills it out.  A great buy. 88 Michael Apstein Mar 15, 2011
