Such a good year for MSB that I will only list the wines that NZ Master of wine, Bob, rated 93+. Plenty of wines still to be rated.

Matua Valley Estate Series Paretai Marlborough NZ Sauvignon Blanc 2012 - 93

Villa Maria Cellar Selection Marlborough NZ Sauvignon Blanc 2012 - 93

Villa Maria Southern Clays Marlborough NZ Sauvignon Blanc 2012 - 93

Auntsfield Southern Valleys Marlborough NZ Sauvignon Blanc 2012 - 93

Mount Riley Limited Release Marlborough NZ Sauvignon Blanc 2012 - 93

Two Rivers Convergence Marlborough NZ Sauvignon Blanc 2012 - 93

Saint Clair Pioneer Block 3, 43 Degrees Marlborough NZ Sauvignon Blanc 2012 - 93

Babich Wakefield Downs Marlborough NZ Sauvignon Blanc 2012 - 93

Saint Clair Wairau Reserve Marlborough NZ Sauvignon Blanc 2012 - 94

Cloudy Bay Marlborough NZ Sauvignon Blanc 2012 - 94

Jules Taylor Marlborough NZ Sauvignon Blanc 2012 - 93

Saint Clair Pioneer Block 2, Swamp Marlborough NZ Sauvignon Blanc 2012 - 93

Rimapere Marlborough NZ Sauvignon Blanc 2012 - 94

Made for "Camagnie Vinicole Baron Edmond de Rothschild" by Craggy Range. Rimapere is a Maori word for five arrows, the Rothschild logo. Taut, dry, aromatic Sauvignon Blanc with strong mineral/wet stone, gooseberry, capsicum and citrus characters. Quite Sancerre-like. Classy Sauvignon Blanc. Good food wine

I think the Celler will be fuller bodied. My last VM Wairau was a bit ordinary. No box hedge etc. Still nice but in a Saint Clair basic kinda way. Two more 93's added to the list.

FYI fellow quaffers... VM cellar selection is down to 8.49 at co-op until 14th May
My local store had a 2010, 2x 2011 & 2x 2012 so you may get lucky finding 2012 vintage
