Shaw and Smith : Sauvignon Blanc - Adelaide Hills 2008

I like the Shaw and Smith vineyard, from Adelaide in Australia, but their wines are not the easiest to find. I picked up this bottle here in Abu Dhabi :-)

Snooth.com describes ...
Sauvignon Blanc is a refreshingly crisp white wine that offers citrus and tropical fruit flavors with very aromatic notes of green chilies, grass, herbs, asparagus and gooseberries commonly contributing to the bouquet. Sauvignon Blanc is generally unaoked allowing the fruit to shine and highlighting the delicacy of the grape.
A great way to spend RM$100 (African and Eastern, Abu Dhabi) ... crisp, not so dry, and bursting in flavour!
Previously, I also had the most divine ... Shaw and Smith - M3 Vineyard Chardonnay, 2002
