Classical Forrest Estate Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc at its very best – pungent on the nose the flavours spring from the glass. Aromatic herbs – rosemary, thyme and sage, floral aromas of elderflower, tropical fruits – paw paw, mango, passionfruit and hints of berry fruit – blackcurrant, cranberry and gooseberry. Wine Spectator Intense and bright, with orange blossom, grapefruit and grass flavors fleshed out by tangy nectarine notes on the finish. Drink now. 40,000 cases imported. Score: 88. —Daniel Sogg, April 30, 2007. Wine Enthusiast Starts off a bit slow, with scents of underripe peach or melon that are a bit unyielding, and a hint of matchstick-like, Fumé character. Green pepper and citrus flavors take firm hold of the slightly oily palate, then turn crisp and tart on the finish. Score: 87. —Joe Czerwinski, July 01, 2007.
