I bought a bottle of Kim Crawford's 2002 Sauvignon Blanc from the Marlborough growing region and the wine is actually pretty good. At $19 per bottle it isn't cheap but there is a lot of complexity in each glass though I do have two complaints. Number one is that New Zealand vintners seem to think it is ok to have an expensive wine with a screw off top. It isn't. There has been 60 years of ****e wine such as Gallo or Boone's Farms selling ****tie fortified wines in screw off top bottles for $0.99 per bottle so consumers firmly link screw off top wine with ****e.
Number two is that the wine seems to be overly carbonated almost to Champagne like levels. I suppose this could happen if the wine had to much sugar and was fermented in a closed system but aging should have gotten the extra CO2 out of the bottle so I wouldn't be seeing all these little bubbles on the side of my glass. It's not especially distracting but a good Sauvignon Blac isn't supposed to do this an a fermintation lock during production would have solved this problem.
Still, it's a good wine. California makes better wines for less money as does Australia and I've even seen the rare Chilian wine which is better bt still sold for half the price. I don't know if I will be going back to New Aealand made wines but so far I'm not unhappy with the product.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.

* not that I think the comparison is at all valid. Churchill could form coherent sentences and such.Concrete, Abstract, or Squoingy?

That's because we know how you think, Ned. Not because we actually agree!
But you knew that already.
