San Pedro 2010 1865 Single Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc (Leyda Valley)
Editors' Choice
Price
$19
In the four years that San Pedro has been making this SB, it has improved steadily. This is pungent, strong and piercing, with sharpness that comes up just shy of being too much. Spritzy in feel, with lime, fresh lettuce and tarragon flavors. Sheer, long and tangy on the finish; excellent Leyda SB.

O. Fournier 2008 Centauri Sauvignon Blanc (Leyda Valley)
Online Exclusive
Price
$18
When O. Fournier tackles a new project, such as Sauvignon Blanc from Leyda, it doesn’t mess around. This is an excellent example of Chilean SB with green fruit, citrus and a light touch of capsicum. It’s a serious wine that challenges with its peppery crispness offset by grapefruit and green melon. Very nice mouthfeel; shows itself in a couple of waves.

Montes 2010 Limited Selection Sauvignon Blanc (Leyda Valley)
Best Buy
Price
$15
This SB has one of Chile’s best track records for high quality. The nose and flavors both exceed norms, with the former showing bold citrus, lime and melon aromas and the latter revolving around grapefruit, lime and gooseberry. It’s ripe, healthy, pithy, acid-driven and piercing. Summer sipping calls.

Undurraga 2010 T.H. Sauvignon Blanc (Leyda Valley)
Online Exclusive
Price
$20
One sniff receives immediate prickle and a hint of fresh bell pepper offset by citrus blossom and passion fruit. All the components of excellent Sauvignon Blanc appear in this carved, sizzling wine: tangerine, orange, grapefruit and lime flavors; freshness and physique; purity and sense of place.

Montes 2008 Limited Selection Leyda Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc (Leyda Valley)
Price
$16
Smells like an ocean breeze mixed with field greens, citrus and passion fruit. Montes has been a leader in Chile’s movement toward coastal SB, and this one is blasting with grapefruit, green apple, passion fruit and minerality. In the mouth, it has some weight and richness; but that’s balanced by zippy acidity. Can’t imagine a better match for ceviche or tuna tartare.

San Pedro 2009 1865 Single Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc (Leyda Valley)
Online Exclusive
Price
$19
Nettle, citrus, green herb and mineral aromas announce its coastal SB roots, while the juicy citrus and stony mineral quality are just what they should be. There’s even some tarragon and juniper in the mix. Really good Chilean Sauvignon Blanc that is improving year after year since debuting in 2007. 1,000 cases made.

Anakena 2011 Single Vineyard Plot: Anís Sauvignon Blanc (Leyda Valley)
Best Buy
Price
$13
More neutral than fruity or pungent, with vivacity and minerality on the bouquet. Feels lifted, medium-bodied and citrusy, with lime, tarragon, wet stone and green apple flavors. Level and chiseled on the finish.

Santa Rita 2009 Medalla Real Single Estate Sauvignon Blanc (Leyda Valley)
Online Exclusive
Price
$20
Pithy and peachy on the nose, and not nearly as zesty smelling as it is in the mouth, where angular, crisp acids push flavors of citrus and passionfruit. Zesty with a ton of kick, and very much in the Leyda mold of being oceanic and full of passionfruit. Mature but not fading; drink before summer 2011.
