Riverby Estate Marlborough Sauvignon Semillon 2011 $26 
An injection of 35% semillon, with its hay fields and herb notes, adds depth and complexity to snappy, citrus-driven sauvignon blanc. This is the debut effort for this style from Riverby, and 8 months in new french oak has led to a lovely amalgamation of white peach, lemongrass, sugar-snap pea and herbaceousness in this wine along with nice texture and solid length of flavour. www.riverbyestate.com
