10X Sauvignon Blanc 2012

10X Sauvignon Blanc 2012 (Mornington, Vic)
13.5%, Screwcap, $28

I think I caught this one about a year too late.

Leesy and quite mellow nose a Sancerre, not Marlborough. Slightly forward, tangy palate has structural drive if just a little too much texture for the fruit. Could do with a little more fruit weight to carry things forward. Ok.

Almost 25 years ago I started working in a small bottleshop, largely to buy cheap beer. There, I met my first two loves - wine and craft beer, and they took over my life. Two decades later and I spend my days as a journalist, buyer, wine show judge, marketer and drinks industry consultant.
