Oxford Landing, South Australia, 2021 Sauvignon Blanc, $9.89-$10.99, 85 points, was a light yellow-gold color and clearing broadly towards the rim.
Aromas were grassy, showed a dusty white grape smell, and finished with a hint of sour lemon.
Australia has not showed up its neighbors to the south (NZ) with this offering, but that said, at under $10, and with a low enough alcohol content (10.5%) to pair with my spicy Mexican cuisine, and satisfactory flavors of lime, lemon grass, and melon rind with fair to good acidity, this was not a disappointment.
Finished fair, a bit thin, but paired okay with my fried haddock, honey-stung chicken wings, and white chocolate dessert.
