Borthwick Vineyard 2004 Sauvignon Blanc (Wairarapa)

  1. $18
Full yet steely, with melon, passion fruit, peach and a smidgen of smoked meat. Quite the powerball, with aggressive flavors of nectarine, peach and citrus. Finishes bold, with mouthwatering acidity. Imported by Robert Bath Imports.  — J.C.  (7/1/2005)

Borthwick Vineyard 2005 Sauvignon Blanc (Wairarapa)

  • Editors' Choice
  1. $17
Distinctively smoky and grassy on the nose, marked by fumé notes and bold gooseberry aromas. This is full, ripe and round in the mouth, bursting with melon and pink grapefruit flavors that finish long.  — J.C.  (12/15/2006)

Borthwick Vineyard 2008 Paper Road Pinot Gris (Hawke's Bay)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $17
A medium-bodied, creamy-textured Pinot Gris, filled to the brim with pear, melon and jasmine notes. Elegant and harmonious, it should prove versatile with food.  — J.C.  (11/1/2009)

Borthwick Vineyard 2008 Sauvignon Blanc (Wairarapa)

  1. $18
From an area just outside Martinborough, this is a rather restrained Sauvignon Blanc, one dominated by melon and white grapefruit. It finishes a little soft, but with a quick herbal burst of flavor.  — J.C.  (9/1/2009)

Boasts plenty of savory, mushroomy character, but lacks fruit and turns crisp on the finish.  — J.C.  (3/1/2007)
