Clifford Bay 2011 Sauvignon Blanc

Its been a while since I have reviewed a wine.  I think I have finally figured out how I want to review them.  There will be up to 10 points possible for possible for taste, up to 5 for color, and 5 for price.  This wine is from my favorite region for Sauvignon Blanc.  New Zealand in my opinion is the best budget white wine region.  This Clifford Bay 2011 Sauvignon Blanc is a great Budget Conoisseur wine.  The nose is full of wet hay, fresh cut grass, apple, and pear.  The taste is great.  It starts off with a great acidity then segways into lemon and pear and has a nice apple finish.  It also has a light to medium body for mouth feel.  Taste I give it a 8.8, Color is a 4, and price is 4 out of 5.  That gives it a total of 16.8 out of 20.  This is a wine I would drink again if you should try if you like Sauvignon Blanc.
