Thornbury Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2004
Region: Marlborough, New Zealand
Winery: Thornbury Wines
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc
Rating: 3
Color: Pale straw with yellow highlights
Nose: Semi-intense aromas of citrus, particularly lime and lemon, followed by a little grassiness, typical for this wine
Palate: Good acidity, despite the age, but this wine has lost a little of its intensity. Those aromas persist on the palate with a little bit of minerality at the end in the crisp finish with a hint of sweetness. That sweetness becomes more apparent in the finish after being open for a number of hours. Good, tho, particularly since I got this for 3 dollars a bottle by the case as my house white!
