5 star. 93/100

Dog Point's "off the mainstream" Sauvignon Blanc is oak-fermented using wild yeasts before being bottled with a cork (Sauvignon Blanc with a cork is like a car driving on its emergency spare wheel - an accident waiting to happen). This is a seriously delicious wine with lovely minerality, an appropriate tease of classy oak and pure, focused fruit flavour from a vintage that often did not deliver the goods. Terrific wine with controlled funk and pleasing complexity.
