Taste of Tasmania 10/11 (Hobart): {screwcap, A$25} A mainstream sort of gooseberry/lychee nose, but verging more on the olive/green side of the line rather than the tropical fruit one. Medium level of acid keeps the hint-of-asparagus flavours with plenty of tang; and the fruit coats most of the palate, which is encouraging. SB isn’t really my style of wine, but this is pretty good and more than a match for most wines coming out of Marlborough.
