Here’s what you should know about the 2009 Marlborough Sauvignon Blancs: They’re good. 2009 was a relatively easy vintage, with a warm, dry summer and moderate temperatures during harvest. And for the budget-conscious, it’s nice to know that you can expect to find an outstanding Sauvignon Blanc for around $20, if not less.
