GEM Sauvignon Blanc 2009

3.5 stars - Michael Cooper's 'Buyers Guide'

Exceptional New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc!

Reminiscent of very, very good Sancerre, this sensational Sauvignon Blanc is distinctly different from the typical high-acid early releases from New Zealand commonly available in Singapore. Fermented completely dry with 12 months on lees results in an ideal palate balance of acidity, soft fruit & complex characters. The wine was bottled & further aged until its recent release.
In just under five years, Gem has made its way onto the wine lists at some of the world’s leading Michelin star restaurants.
