Blackenbrook Vineyard

Sue Courtney enthuses about our newly released Blackenbrook Muscat 2010 in her “Vinous Ramblings on the “Wine of the Week” web site.

The aroma of this wine is just so tantalising – like fresh muscat grapes, jasmine and honeysuckle all rolled into one.

You think this wine is going to be sweet, and it’s slightly sweetish, yes, but there’s a well balanced citrus-like tang running through the wine that keeps the fresh, fruity sweetness in check.

It’s a wine for a gorgeous blue sky day.  Best accompany this sociable tipple with canapes – I’m thinking a Nelson wine with tangy citrus, like this one has, accompanied with Nelson scallops cooked with a little chilli, lime and coriander would go down a treat.
