2009 Black Label Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc |
|
Tasting Note February 2009 was very wet but March had half the average rainfall and April was fairly dry. That made conditions perfect for this Sauvignon which was harvested from our Awatere Valley vineyard in the second half of April. It exhibits flavours of ripe gooseberry, guava and red capsicum with hints of tropical fruit and passion-fruit characters. Structure is provided by a nice acid backbone, giving the wine good purity and energy. A perfect match to most seafood dishes, especially pan-fried scallops. May be cellared for up to 2 years for added complexity. << Return to 'Our Wines' |
