Wine Enthusiast
Meticulous winemaker Ignacio Recabarren has been working and working the Terrunyo Sauvignon Blanc for the past five years and in 2006 he seems to have nailed it. You can smell and taste its purity and style. The citrus and minerality are unparalleled in Chile, while the finish is as long as the country it comes from.
Score: 91.

Wine Spectator
Offers nice citrus peel, mineral and floral flavors, with straw and sweet pea lingering on the steely, lengthy finish. Nicely done.
Score: 89.

Wine Advocate
The 2006 Terrunyo Sauvignon Blanc offers melon and citrus aromas and flavors buttressed by crisp acidity. However, it is no better than most of the value-priced Sauvignons listed on the Value Chart making it over-priced in the scheme of things.
Score: 87.
