WTN: Nepenthe Sauvignon Blanc 2005

Adelaide Hills.

Refreshing, spicy, peppery, moderately tangy, peach, lemon and grapefruit. Stood up fairly well to vegetable chilli.

Fairly long, tangy and mouthwatering finish.

Screwcap closure.

Purchased for $14.55 (Canadian).

Thanks for reminding me that I'm out of Nepenthe SB! I like keeping some of this one on hand.

Bruce, this sounds like a good wine to have on hand on any given weekend, especially to sip while cooking.

Quick question - is it dry or off-dry?

Believe it or not, I am having difficulty remembering I guess old age is creeping.

I don't recall it being mouth-puckering dry, but I also don't recall it being overly sweet. Hope this helps.

While I haven't had the 05, I've had several bottles of the '03 and I remember it as being dry. I probably wouldn't have liked otherwise.
