FOR summer in a bottle new mown lawns and country hay captured in a drink it's to New Zealand we must turn. If you have pounds to burn in the late July sun, the possibilities are limitless, working up in price until you hover in the stratospheric region around Cloudy Bay.
If on the other hand, you want a typical New Zealander that's consistently well made, regularly heaped with honours and relatively inexpensive, start with Montana Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 1995 (very widely available, £6.99-£7.99). It's nearly as easy to find as kiwi fruit.
