Wine Tasting Note: Marquis de St. Vincent Oak Aged Sauvignon Blanc/Semillon, 2004, Bordeaux, France.Unwins £6.99.
Produced by the Producta consortium this wine must be a new label as it is not listed on the website. A lemon-hued colour, pronounced, honeyed aroma with hints of pineapple and vanilla and a full-flavour. Here the Sauvignon's acidity reveals itself in a little tartness on the finish but initially the Semillon dominates with rounded, smooth, honeyed lemon and peach flavours. Crisp with a mineral edge to the finish.
Scribblings Rating - 88/100
This would be superb with some baked trout or other fish, chicken roasted or in a creamy sauce and pasta dishes similarily enriched with butter or cream. Delicious.
