#anotheroneescapes #frikkiescellar 2017 #SauvignonBlanc from the @brancottestate #Brancottestate #Marlborough #NewZealand Mouthwatering aromas of melon, lemongrass, citrus and cut grass. Deliciously crisp and fresh, perfect acidity on the palate alongside some more tropical fruit. #loveit #frikkiesofficialreview #ilovenewzealand #winelover #winelovers #newzealandwine #wineguru #ilovewine #instawine #winefriends — 8 years ago

Winemaker Joseph J. Wagner is a 4th generation winemaker from a family with farming and winemaking roots in the Napa Valley since 1906. Deep Ruby (darkest Pinot almost looks like a Cab) with aromas of ripe berries and spice notes. The palate shows rich black fruits, blackberries, plums and black cherries, vanilla spice, cedar and cacao. Rich soft tannins, firm acidity on lingering finish ending with mineral tones. Nice! — 9 years ago

Super bright, clear wine, lighter bodied. Wonderful melon, lemongrass, passion fruit and white pepper nose. Green melon, passion fruit, peach, ginger and some herb notes I'm struggling to identify beyond the lemon grass, maybe tomato leaf? Passion fruit comes through nicely on the finish. Really pleased with this one! — 9 years ago

I still love this Pinot but the 2011 was amazing I drank at least a case. It does not have the same feel seems more heavy with darker fruit notes. — 9 years ago

Herb. Mineral. Fresh cut grass. All at once typical and unique. All at once wildly expressive and delicately nuanced. The palate is something to behold. — 10 years ago

At opening, a room filling aroma of fresh cut grass. Clear pale yellow. full palate of citrus, 💐, honeysuckle and herbs. Good minerality. long finish. A bit of RS? Overall a lovely effort. SB for those who dismiss this varietal.
