Nobilo Sauvignon Blanc 2007

VARIETAL: Sauvignon Blanc
REGION: Marlborough, New Zealand
PRICE: $11
Zippity-do-da. This white has enough zest and zing to propel you into spring head-first. It is a stunningly clear pale green-gold that looks like sunshine in a glass. And on the nose you get fresh cut grass mingling with notes of white grapefruit, lime and lemon zest. Once you get past the formalities, you'll probably find yourself slurping a bit. Slow down. Take a minute to appreciate the full spectrum of taste sensations. Tropical fruit and melon flavors are full and round on your tongue, but balanced by shots of citrusy acidity and a super clean mineral finish. This wine is a great pairing with a salad course, or if you're feeling a little more adventurous, with ceviche. Or if you are more of a traditionalist, try it with broiled sole with lemon, butter and capers. Just try it: Nobilo Sauvignon Blanc 2007
