- “Neudorf Sauvignon Blanc 2010. Soft, full and voluminous nose of ripe capsicums, nectarines and herbs, along with nuances of minerals, smoke and flint. Dry to taste, this is fulsome and rich, packed with flavours of ripe stonefruits, nectarines and herbs, providing plenty of weight. The acidity is slippery, but soft, adding a sweetness and lusciousness to the fruit expression.18+/20 ”

- Neudorf Sauvignon Blanc 2010. “Closer to the Loire Valley than Marlborough/Nelson in style. Nose is delicate and refined showing grapefruit, capsicum and a touch of chalky/mineral characters. Concentrated and finely textured on the palate with a beautifully weighted mid palate and seamless mouthfeel leading to a long crisp finish. A superbly harmonised Sauvignon full of character.” 91/100

- Neudorf Sauvignon Blanc 2008 - “Highly aromatic with fresh tropical fruit notes, leading to a lively palate displaying grapefruit freshness as well as tropical fruit richness. Lovely presence and vibrancy".
- Jamie’s Goode’s Top Sauvignon Picks, Decanter 2010.
- Neudorf Sauvignon Blanc 2009. Pronounced aromas
of grapefruit, lime leaf, kumquat and fresh straw. Medium
bodied, it offers a great concentration of juicy citrus fruit with
crisp acidity and a long steely finish.
- Lisa Perotti-Brown, Wine Advocate
- “A little hot on the nose with just a smidgen of hair oil. Big and bold and confident. More fruit bottom than a typical Marlborough example. Something to get your teeth into. Real substance though."
- Jancis Robinson MW 2010
- Neudorf Nelson Sauvignon Blanc 2009 "Fragrant with hints of eau de cologne, mint and pineapple, this is a juicy, textural wine, attractive and nicely balanced with a lingering finish."
- Charmian Smith, Otago Daily Times
- "Neudorf Sauvignon Blanc 2009 - Delicately aromatic Sauvignon Blanc in a restrained bone-dry style. Wild herbs, capsicum and mineral flavours. Racy acidity makes this a particularly good food wine. Classy rather than showy Sauvignon. 4 stars."
- Bob Campbell MW
- ”Restrained but distinctive citrus-styled Sauvignon with an attractive hint of mineral-like reductiveness and a sensual floral note. Really complex if you linger and don’t rush. Rich on the palate, intense and long. Delicious.”
- JancisRobinson.com. Oct 2009
- Neudorf Nelson Sauvignon Blanc 2007 - "Concentrated ripe nectarine, melon and stewed apple flavours are evident on this appealing wine. Bone dry with tangy acidity and lingering finish. One of New Zealand's top Sauvignon Blancs."

- "Neudorf 2007 Sauvignon Blanc has a vibrant nose with hints of tropical fruit: orange zest and apricot with subtle herbaceous tones on the palate.” 90/100

- Neudorf Nelson Sauvignon Blanc 2005 "...highly atmospheric, unashamedly pungent and proud of its sexy, fresh sweat and wild herb aromatics. The unctuous texture conceals structure wicked as a sheathed stiletto. About as good as Sauvignon gets."
