Thomas Mitchell Marsanne 2002

Thomas Mitchell Marsanne (South East Australia) 2002: Sealed under screwcap so no worries about cork taint here. It has a moderately rich, but pure, golden hue. A similar purity may be found on the nose, which offers focussed aromas of lemon curd and honeyed toast, with floral, acacia notes. The palate is very clean and fresh, with very good acidity. This wine has a combination of finesse and balance on the palate, despite being packed with flavour. Very good. (2/1/04)
