Despite its age and the common belief that it cannot be aged, I beg to differ. A very enjoyable Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. While the grassy nature remains, acidity also remains solid bland is balanced with a degree of creamy complexity. Try aging some.

Still drinking fairly decently. It still has a nose of grapefruit, lemon, and honeydew. But, the structure appears to be starting its decline. I'm surprised this is still drinking well. Still, I'm going to drink up what I have left!

Extreme citrus. I love NZ Sauv Blanc from Marlborough, but Kim Crawford has declined in quality yearly as quantity of production has increased. No longer a wine I purchase in any vintage.

Grassy nose with herbs. Interesting wine, outside the norm for Sauvignon Blanc...
