Tahbilk Museum Release Marsanne 2018

Wickedly youthful, marsanne has the potential to age every bit as splendidly as riesling or semillon. Here’s the proof. Bright yellow hues introduce aromas of beeswax, buttered toast, citrus, apricot and pear. The taste remains youthful and fresh with a developing texture – the middle palate is more rounded than the ’17 – and is essentially complex. But it still has a way to go. Drink from: 2024.
