This Errazuriz Single Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc comes from the Escultura estate in Chile's cool Casablanca Valley.
The nose shows plenty of typical herbaceous Sauvignon aromas, with gooseberries and cut grass; the palate feels full, rounded and moutfilling, partly due to extended aging on the lees, with crisp, balanced green apple and pineapple acidity and a savoury finish with more herbaceous aromas.
A well-made easy drinker, it is in style part-way between a challenging, steely, cool-climate Loire Sauvignon and something more tropical from Marlborough.
£9.99 from Majestic, slurp; provided for review
