90 points Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar: `Pale yellow. Potent lime and white peach aromas are complicated by jasmine and dusty minerals. Racy deeply concentrated citrus and melon flavors offer excellent palate coverage and tangy grip finishing clean and long. Pretty impressive.` (Mar/Apr '08) 90 points Wine Spectator: `Bright and pure with lots of mache sweet pea chive flower and mineral flavors backed by a bright tangy finish. This has solid length and richness.` (06/08) 90 points from Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: `The 2007 Sauvignon Blanc Floresta from the cool-climate Leyda Valley is a first class effort with an expressive bouquet of minerals fresh herbs grapefruit and gooseberry. Round and complex the wine has exceptional depth and concentration. Should be consumed over the next 1-2 years. Santa Rita produces a wide range of wines in all price categories. A significant number offer excellent value and the top wines are Chilean icons.` (10/08)
