Giesen Sauvignon Blanc
| Description: | Colour: Pale yellow. Bouquet: Lifted, fresh aromas of sweet gooseberry and dried cut grass with a distinctive herbal note. Taste: Classic nettle and gooseberry flavours combine with dry, citrus flavours on a medium bodied palate. Focused acidity provides length and a refreshing zest to the finish. Region Description. When the first growers planted grapes in Marlborough in the 1970s (there is evidence of plantings as early as 1870s), it is unlikely they would have foreseen the extent of the growth and fame that the region's wine industry would achieve, based upon a single varietal called Sauvignon Blanc. The distinctive pungency and zest fruit flavours of the first Marlborough wines, in particular Sauvignon Blanc, captured the imagination of the country's winemakers as well as international wine commentators and consumers and sparked an unparalleled boom in vineyard development. Worldwide interest in Marlborough wines, particularly Sauvignon Blanc, has continued to fuel that regional wine boom. |
