Mount Nelson
Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc
Marlborough, South Island, New Zealand
Pretty balanced and not nearly as boisterous as other selections from the region. Mild grapefruit, good amounts of guava and freshly sliced green bell peppers. Fair minerality as well.

Mar 26th, 2017Maybe because it's older, this wine didn't have as much brightness/crispness as I normally like in a Marlborough SB. Color more yellow than white. Still enjoyed it and thought it was pretty balanced and easy to drink. Was a little more expensive than my go-to Oyster Bay and I personally didn't like it as much.

V12. Enjoyable. Stone fruit and citrus bouquet. Creamy tropical fruits with slightly tart but crisp finish.

Very crisp and refreshing with a pleasant nose. Very similar to Vavasour.

Sep 9th, 2015Fruity clean crisp with lime and lemon undertones. Elegant and fun. Great starter wine before a fantastic thanksgiving
Had it again tonight 3/29/15 with some
mahi and a Potato. Grapefruit more powerful and noticeable in this bottle. Some pineapple as well. Thoroughly enjoyable easy wine

Too much unripe fruit. Almost like chewing on lime skin.
