Sileni Cellar Selection Sauvignon Blanc 2010

16.0 / 20
Producer: Sileni
Region: Marlborough
Country: New Zealand



Straw colored, the nose shows notes of passion fruit and a marked vegetable side - the usual cut grass but also something that reminded me of sage and mint.


Crisp and fresh in the palate, with a decent structure, I felt this was not a fruit driven white, given that the vegetable notes were a bit more prominent than the passion fruit. A good, lengthy, dry ending with some lime notes wraps up the taste.
