I "discovered" this wine while waiting in line at the Costco liquor store about a year ago. I perfer dry whites and I love citrus flavors and a gentleman in the store told me that he buys this wine by the case because he loves its grapefruit flavor. Grapefruit! In wine? Oh yes, I had to have some. I love citrus scents and tastes.
Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc did not disappoint. It's light and refreshing and it definitely has a nice citrus flavor. Bonus: It doesn't have a cork (I understand that unoaked wines don't need one), so I can travel with the bottle and open it anywhere (think really casual BYOB spots, hotel rooms, my cabin on a cruise ship...).
Around my way this wine retails for between $13-15 per bottle. I find that pretty reasonable. If you live near one, I recommend purchasing it at Total Wine. The store is large, has an extensive selection of alcoholic beverages, and really helpful staff. Our location even does tastings on weekends. Good times!
