2024 Tahbilk Marsanne

A delicious rendition of Tahbilk’s ever reliable Marsanne.

Established in 1860 and purchased by the Purbrick family in 1925, Tahbilk has the world’s largest single holding of Marsanne, a grape that plays a major role in some of the worlds most famed white wines, those of Hermitage in Northern Rhone.
Brilliant pale straw colour with highlights of green around the outskirts and a watery hue. Fresh peach and lime aromas jump out of the glass complimented by some floral honeysuckle, apple skin and subtle spicy bees wax notes. On the palate delicious peach and red apple skin flavours meld into a back drop of lime, delicate honeysuckle and stony mineral elements. Supple in its feel it possesses solid concentration and vibrant underlying acidity. Dry, refreshing finish.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
Alc. 12.5%

Other Reviews....
Such a steal at $22. Full of flavour, distinctive with it, long through the finish, and with a proven track record. It’s got so many ticks it feels quality certified. Stonefruit, grapefruit, slate, a pinch of salt and of course citrus. Intensity of flavour here is very good, as this wine is from all angles. Drink 2024-2035+
