This is a dry wine with no hard edges. It has great fruit harmonizing with a small compliment of Semillon to assist with its evolution. Smooth, tropical & marginally herbaceous with bright flavours. Excellent lingering finish with languid ripples of mixed fruits & plum, fig & kiwi. Drink now or cellar & enjoy the evolution to five, six, seven years! This ' Reserve' edition of the Bouchard Finlayson Sauvignon blanc can safely be considered to be a 'collectors' item. It has the ability to age & develop to a complex level, confronting the urban legend that Sauvignon blanc is only suitable in its fresh flowery form. Ever popular Sauvignon blanc has largely been relegated to the popular drinking category. Pay attention & appreciate the sophistication of this special cuvee!
