2005 Mulderbosch Sauvignon Blanc
Stellenbosch, South Africa
Shane’s Notes
$18.99

We had been looking for this S.B. for quite awhile. It scored a very high rating in one of Andrea Immer’s books so our expectations were high. The aroma was very promising showing citrus, grass and green beans. The palate was not as grassy as the nose suggests. There was a nice citrus flavor with creamy lemon and green beans. It is smooth and very well structured. It is a very good S.B., but the flavors never quite go into overdrive. If my expectations hadn’t been so high, I would have really enjoyed it.
