Thanks for your input
"Cloud Piercer "
Sauvignon Blanc 2004
Marlborough
Produce of New Zealand
Produced by Mt. Aoraki Vineyards exclusively for Trader Joe's.
"At 12,316 feet in New Zealand, the magnificent Mount Aoraki on the Southern Island , spreads above the land where these grapes are grown."
Alc 13.5 % by Vol.
Screw cap bottle, that looks identical to Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc.(the color of the cap was blue, but on the Kim Crawford, is green.
The taste was almost identical to the Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc.
I suspect that this $8 bottle was a re-labled $14 bottle of Kim Crawford.
I contacted the importers, no response,
I contacted Kim Crawford, no acknowledgement of the Cloud Piercer wine.No Denial either.
