Product Notes

The Tahbilk 1927 Vines Marsanne wine is a lustrous embodiment of sublime Australian viticulture. Revered for its immeasurably unique aromatic character, it exhibits an alluring bouquet of succulent honeydew, pear and lime zest. Its mature palate yields voluptuous flavours of yellow apple, ripe melon, and hints of quince, perfectly balanced with a subtle, toasty oak essence. The finish is long, luxuriously velvety and opulently textural with an enduring depth of minerality. A historic gem from the 1927 vineyard, this Marsanne wine from Tahbilk provides a truly mesmerising drinking experience. An idyllic choice for discerning wine connoisseurs.

Tasting Notes

Complex aromas of mineral, lemon and orange citrus aromas are accompanied by fresh hay overtones. Zesty notes of lemon, grapefruit, toast and classic rich honeysuckle weave through the textured palate, beautifully balanced by vibrant acidity.
