2024 Parish Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc
Mouth watering Tassie Sauvignon Blanc that carries impressive intensity.
Brilliant water like colour with a greenish tinge running around the outskirts. Pungent aromas of herbaceous gooseberries and passionfruit jump out of the glass followed by some lime, subtle grassy asparagus and mineral notes. Scrumptious gooseberry, passionfruit and lime fruits carry impressive intensity across the mouth watering palate. Herbaceous grassy characters, asparagus and mineral elements lie underneath. Crisp acidity with a long zesty finish.
Drink over the next 1-2 years.
Alc. 12%
Other Reviews……
Sauvignon Blanc from a warmer part of Tasmania – the cooler regions might just make the variety a little too lean and mean – which works well. A gleaming pale green/gold, this is a Savvy of intensity throughout. The aromas are a pleasing mix of the herbal and the tropical, giving us a medley of passionfruit and cut grass – sounds odd but it works. There is acidity tending to paper cut levels, but as the tropicals take over on the palate, this is neatly balanced. Good length here, and the wine should drink well for the next couple of years. You could do a lot worse than match it with some fresh Tassie scallops. Drink 2024-2026.
