Thornbury

Thornbury 2014 Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 13%
Fabulous bouquet of Marlborough SB fruits - vibrant and zesty mix of gooseberry, nettles and fresh herbs with a wet stone and sweet mineral water quality; crisp fresh and sweet aromas. On the palate - crisp, fresh, juicy and lush with flavors that reflect the nose and linger on the palate including the stone mineral notes; balanced and very well made.
5 Stars

Thornbury 2014 Waipara Pinot Gris 13%
Fruity, chalky and mineral lead Gris with aromas of soil, sweet air and fruit - apple, white peach and pear with a lemon twist. On the palate - off dry with a little residual and medium+ acidity together balances the fruit flavors and gently warm alcohol; medium body, generous of flavor and finish. Well made.
3.5 Stars
