Riverby Estate 2008 Sauvignon Blanc
Lemongreen. Bouquet is sweet, ripe and mild, black passionfruit more than red capsicum, faintest sweet basil, all a little milder than the Astrolabe Voyage. Essential flavours are very similar, so this is a good Marlborough sauvignon for those who find many of them too sharp. It is drier than the commercial average, though. Cellar 2 – 8 years, to taste.
