Independent Review:
88 points Steve Tanzer - International Wine Cellar, Oct 09
Pale, bright yellow. Classic pungent sauvignon aromas of grapefruit pith, flowers, tarragon and fresh herbs (but no asparagus). Supple, juicy and bright, with a touch of sweetness to the pink grapefruit and pineapple flavors. The wine's almost glyceral mouth feel is nicely leavened by ripe grapefruity acidity.

Average £8 cost so you're not getting a great bargain but might be worth a punt.
