I usually don't drink non-Ontario wine, but in an attempt to be more educated on international wines, I really wanted to try some varietals from countries where that varietal is it's "big thing" and nothing is more New Zealand than Sauvignon Blanc. I expected typical grassy, cat-pee on the nose and decent flavors but this wine was a huge surprise. It was tropical, fruity but not sweet. Peaches, gooseberries. It was a wonderful surprise and not what I was expecting.

Derek Barnett is one of my or perhaps my absolute favorite wine maker, and I've been enjoying his wines for over ten years now, so opening a bottle of Meldville wine is always an easy choice, especially because he prices them so affordably without sacrificing any quality. This was good, and drinkable, and subtle and elegant, and I could see enjoying it with a meal, or sipping on it's own. Very reasonably priced at $19.

Amazing wine - I feel like it’s a fume blanc but it doesn’t say on the bottle whether it is. It’s smooth, oakey and well rounded and complex. At $18 it’s insane value!
