I like the restraint in the Marlborough wine — it’s got all the gooseberry, grapefruit and herbs that you want, but it doesn’t hit you over the head. That said, it does leave a mark with subtleness of character and great acid pop that leaves your mouth watering for more. A Platinum Award winner at the 2019 Monterey International Wine Competition.
