Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, July 22, 2020 - We drank this from the bottle with no decanting at about 10 deg C.
Appearance: Clear and bright with no tartrate crystals. Pale straw with a faint greenish tinge; pronounced legs and a slightly oily covering of the glass when swirled; 13% ABV.
Nose: typical Marlborough SB! Mixtures of citrus and herbs with a hint of grapefruit and gooseberry.
Palate: Beautifully balanced fruit and acidity; an immediate hit of fresh fruit fructose followed by a drying finish with the citrus & gooseberry lingering. Lovely full mouthfeel. This is why I love the best of Marlborough SB. Forget Sancerre, this is a great expression of new world SB at a very reasonable price.
By the way, this is still drinking beautifully now and showed no obvious signs of ageing. Thank you Kevin Judd!
