I like their Reds and this Sauvignon was a first – crisp and clean.

Thorin, Sauvignon Blanc, 2015
Freshly cut grass, acid tang. Good party wine on a hot Summer’s day.
Thomond Reserve, Sauvignon Blanc, 2009
More stock dumping by wineonline.ie in their recent pot luck sale.
A 7 year old Signature Sauvignon Blanc, signed by some Munster Legends. I wonder if they knew what they were signing.
Like Munster Rugby, this wine has past it’s best. Hopefully Johan Erasmus’ recent appointment will restore Munster’s reputation, sadly it won’t help this stale liquid that tastes as if it was made from grapes grown on the Fields of Athenry.
Vinarstvi Krasna Hora, Sauvignon Blanc, 2014
Sunday 8th
A light watery Sauvignon Blanc but we enjoyed it at dinner nonetheless.

Michel Lynch, Sauvignon Blanc, 2014
From the Wild Geese Vat Pack an elegant Sauvignon Blanc. None of the acid tang of an NZ offering, this is a refined, confident, dry drop of white.
Amy and Lesley enjoyed this while we celebrated Ross’ elevation to Captaincy.
Laura’s stock.
Rios de Chile, Sauvignon Blanc, 2013
A first: wine specially selected by a Petrol Station which probably says more for Applegreen’s aspirations that my wine snobbery.
Very crisp, compact and tarty Sauvignon from the Valle Central in Chile.
Good party wine I guess.
One of a bring from Ian to his fifth decade bash.
Good write-up here:
Les Deux Pins Sauvignon Blanc 2013
This was on offer in Dunnes at €8.50 and as we liked their Cabernet we gave this a lash.
A workmanlike reliable Sauvignon Blanc, reliable for everyday drinking.
