Torbreck Marsanne (65%) Roussanne (35%) 2005 Barossa

Pale straw. Bass notes of hazelnut and ??. Hint of citrus?

Voluminous mouthfeel and intense, sl. over-ripe, pineapple with subtle rose petal note. Quite long and spicy. No new oak noticeable.

Tasted at 60F approx.


Day 2 - Sauteed apple & pineapple now dominate nose, hazelnut underneath. Utterly moathcoating with great acid/tannin chew providing textural counterpoint. Citrus sneaks in too, and provides the basis for a ridiculously long, chewy finish. This rocks.

Lasts for a chewy minute+ I'd love to see this in 10 years.
