  Kim - 12/18/2008
I would buy this wine again
this is the best white wine i've ever tasted. i don't like oakey so that puts my list short. 1st bought as a case filler. that initial grapefruit taste blew me away. of course i expected as so-so wine. i always have a case of this in both of my houses so i never run out. great alone or with most foods.

  too much grapefruit for me - 9/12/2008
I would not buy this wine again
I was surprised that I didn't care for this overly-grapefruit white. I generally go for Kim Crawford - but not this time

  Kim Crawford vs. Cloudy Bay - 7/13/2008
I would not buy this wine again
Easy drinking. Not as good as Cloudy Bay in character. Cloudy Bay is more crisp and more complex.

  Only in New Zealand - 5/19/2008
I would buy this wine again
From all the Sauvignon Blancs that I have tasted (including California), New Zealand is the best. Anything coming from the Marlborough area is good. Kim Crawford is exceptional. For the budget conscious, this wine is the one for you. I always keep a couple of bottles in my cellar.

  Great wine year after year - 4/3/2008
I would buy this wine again
My wife and I discovered this wine 3 years ago and have loved every vintage since. We have always loved this wine because of its crisp, light, grapefruity, and earthy taste. It is very pleasantly different from other Sauvignon Blancs out there and is GREAT for summer. Always a great value, this year's vintage is not quite as good as last year's (as the professional ratings indicate) but it is still VERY worth your time.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.
Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
Green wine
Green Wines
Wines that use sustainable, organic and/or biodynamic practices in the vineyard and/or winemaking process. We rely on a number of U.S. and International certifications to qualify wines "green."
Collectible wine
Collectible
These wines will improve from additional bottle age, when properly stored, and may show the greatest potential to increase in value.
Great Wine Gifts
Great Wine Gifts
These selected wines make impressionable gifts for wine enthusiasts and oenophiles alike.
Boutique Wines
Boutique Wines
These wines are made in limited quantities and are typically produced from single vineyard sources or made by small, artisanal wineries. While the winery may produce larger quantities, we limit wines with this designation to a 1,000 case production.
