| Semillon 2001 L`Ecole No 41, Columbia Valley, Washington State, USA, Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon Carolyn Evans-Hammond says Asparagus and minerals on the nose leads to bright flavours of lime and spice, asparagus and wet stones. Interesting. Balanced. Excellent food wine with a slightly oily quality characteristic of Semillon. Carolyn Evans-Hammond's Score 81 |
Ruster Ausbruch 2001 Weingut Schrock, Neusiedlersee, Austria, Sauvignon Blanc, Furmint Carolyn Evans-Hammond says Bright apple and citrus aromas. Green apple, orange, lemon, and grass on the palate with a hint of asparagus on the finish. Some length. Good balance. Sweet with adequate tartness and complexity. Carolyn Evans-Hammond's Score 78 |

| Turning Leaf 2003 Ernest & Julio Gallo, California, USA, Sauvignon Blanc Carolyn Evans-Hammond says Bright straw with green tinges, this wine is a clean, well-made example of a commercial style of sauvignon blanc. The aromatic nose of almonds and lime leads to a crisp immediate attack of asparagus, white flowers, lemon and lime zest on the palate. Quite tart (high acidity)--offering a refreshing nip to pair with, say, deep fried coconut shrimp. Fairly elegant and restrained for a New World sauvignon blanc but still showing the ripe fruit typicity of California. (sells at the LCBO for about $12) Carolyn Evans-Hammond's Score 81 |
White Cliff Estate Sauvignon Blanc 2003 Sacred Hill, Marlborough, New Zealand, Sauvignon Blanc Carolyn Evans-Hammond says Bright, full gooseberry, lemon and lime flavours with herbal notes. Rich and full-bodied yet balanced and crisp. Medium length. Carolyn Evans-Hammond's Score 86 |
|
| Sauvignon Blanc 2003 Lalla Gully, Tasmania, Australia, Sauvignon Blanc Carolyn Evans-Hammond says Classic and pronounced aromas of cats pee and gooseberries follow through to unmistakable asparagus and lemon flavours. Crisp and refreshing summertime drink. Carolyn Evans-Hammond's Score 78 |
Sauvignon Blanc 2003 Cloudy Bay, Marlborough, New Zealand, Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon Carolyn Evans-Hammond says Cloudy Bay produced the first Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand to wow the world and has now achieved cult status. The 2003 vintage now commands a price of $31.95 at the LCBO. Dry and aromatic, this racy wine tastes of fresh ripe gooseberries, lime juice, and hints of cut grass. It`s a very fruity style with tart acidity ready to be paired with a full range of grilled summer foods. Chill down and serve. LCBO price: $31.95 Carolyn Evans-Hammond's Score 87 |

| Sauvignon Blanc 2003 Casa Lapostolle, Rapel Valley, Central Region, Chile, Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon Carolyn Evans-Hammond says Crabapple on the nose. Bright, refreshing Sauvignon Blanc character rounded out with a bit of Semillon for body. Similar to a white Graves from Bordeaux. Spicy leafy flavours. Carolyn Evans-Hammond's Score 84 |
Clifford Bay Estate Sauvignon Blanc 2003 Clifford Bay Estate, Marlborough, New Zealand, Sauvignon Blanc Carolyn Evans-Hammond says Crisp and classic with flavours of gooseberry, lemon, lime, and green apple. Balanced and easily as good as the cult wine, Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc Carolyn Evans-Hammond's Score 87 |
|
| Two Vines Sauvignon Blanc 2002 Columbia Crest, Columbia Valley, Washington State, USA, Sauvignon Blanc Carolyn Evans-Hammond says Fairly pronounced nose of gooseberries followed by flavours of tart gooseberries, honey, flowers, and lime. Dry but not-bone dry giving it a rounded mouthfeel. Well balanced and crisp. Short length. Carolyn Evans-Hammond's Score 79 |
Sauvignon Blanc 2003 Cousino Macul, Chile, Sauvignon Blanc Carolyn Evans-Hammond says Fairly restrained nose of apple and citrus with the palate broadening to include gooseberries and lime, oranges and lemon. Good value, well-balanced, crisp, dry wine. Carolyn Evans-Hammond's Score 73 |
