Giesen Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2014v
While I’m pretty sure the 2018 is out in the market now, there’s still a fair bit of the 2017 lurking around, so I thought I’d taste it again. While the aromas are quite attractive (think bruised basil, capsicum, passionfruit, peach) – the palate is all a bit meh. There’s a splash of stonefruit and a hint of that classic grassiness upfront but then it all becomes a bit of a clumsy mess in the mouth. Short but cheap – so a good quaffer.
Widely available.
