Isabel Estate Sauvignon Blanc 2004

A subtle, refined sauvignon, the nose displays lemon, honey and fresh cut grass. The palate is a combination of crisp acid and soft viscosity derived from lees time and in oak. The flavours are a combination of stone fruits, citrus and classic Marlborough herbaceous notes. There is a touch of spice on the palate which is quite dense throughout, and a touch of sweetness to offset the acid. This wine will go well with richly flavoured dishes such as a red Thai curry or marinated smoked mussels.

"Fragrant, with aromas of pineapple, passion fruit, tomatillo, fresh pea and wheat grass. The palate is round and spotless, with a tropical overload of sweet and tart tastes." - Wine Ethusiant Editor's Choice
