Roaring Meg Sauvignon Blanc 2010
Cool summer growing conditions have resulted in a concentrated tropical fruit Sauvignon Blanc in a typical Marlborough style. The wine displays gooseberry flavours intermingled with dried hay; this moves into a full mid-palate and then the wine finishes with lingering passionfruit and rhubarb. This wine is ideal for fun-loving summer evening drinking.
Cellaring Potential:
Roaring Meg Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is at its best within three years of vintage.
Vintage 2010:
The 2010 vintage in Marlborough was slightly later than average both
in terms of ripening and the yields harvested. Cool weather in December
lightened crop levels so that growers did not have to intervene as
extensively as in 2009 to remove excess fruit from their vineyards. The
fruit flavours were rated superb, with quality fruit, riper flavours and
lower alcohol. 2010 Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc has the classic
flavours it has become world famous for.
