Score 91/100 · Drink 2009-2012, Antonio Galloni, Wine Advocate, Oct 2009

The 2008 Sauvignon Sanct Valentin is a gorgeous, crystalline white. The Sanct Valentin is a touch rounder than the Lahn, but nevertheless preserves tons of energy and freshness, with clean, mineral notes that frame the refreshing finish. The fruit remains varietally expressive, but towards the riper end of the spectrum. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2012. Importer: Martin Scott Wines, Little Neck, NY; tel. (516) 327-0808
