Tasting Notes - Hackersley Sauvignon Blanc 2004 (Recommended)
Tasted this just after bottling and was very tight at the time. Happy to report 6 months has done it a world of good and now travelling very nicely. Nose is still quite austere with faint tropical fruits. Palate is much more expressive with overt tropical fruits and a surprisingly dry finish laced with a chalky acid (ie, almost in a Clare riesling style). Only quibble is a little burn from some heat in the throat. Otherwise looking pretty good.
