Nederburg Sauvignon Blanc 2005 - $10.75
Style W2
South Africa
There's oodles of oomph here. The nose is dominated by ripe grapefruit and passionfruit, with a hint of asparagus. The palate is wonderfully juicy and mouthfilling, dripping with grapefruit flavour, with a solid acidic core. Rather full with excellent length, it would partner well with quiche, grilled tuna or vegetarian dishes. (LCBO 382713)

My Wine of the Week is selected on the basis of "bang for the buck." I look for wines that offer good, every day value. My picks are loosely based around a $12-$15 ceiling, and must be readily available.

Oooo, I love a Sauvignon Blanc that's all grapefruity. I don't think I've tried Nederburg. I'll put that on my ever-growing list.
We did have some KWV Chenin Blanc on the weekend. My mother-in-law really liked it as did my husband. It's great to have something different.
