Astrolabe Discovery Sauvignon Blanc 2010

Awatere Valley, Marlborough, South Island, New ZealandVery grassy, artichoke, pea shoot, gooseberry, nettle aromas. Fresh, crisp, creamy, juicy palate with good concentration. Pink grapefruit, nettle, lemon grass, gooseberry, artichoke and herb flavours. Good texture and intensity, definitely a cooler style but with finesse with a touch of austerity.Tasted: 23 November 2011Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
