Bird On A WireMarsanne 2013
About this product
Classic ripening conditions have allowed the vineyard to produce fruit with a lovely balance between all of the main elements. The vineyard catches plenty of sun and the lean soils help the development of distinctive Marsanne characters white flowers, spice, fennel and honey.
As a result, the wine is rich and full with great mouthfeel. Texture is essential to the structure in harmony with the slight (but balanced) bitterness from Marsanne which aids in persistence of flavour.
No acid adjustments have been made to this wine and as a result it is quite low in acid. The phenolics and bitterness help create the balance usually provided by acidity.
When: Ready to drink now, as a rich, honeyed and full flavoured bodied wine.
Where: When you’ve got some time to cook up something delicious. This aged Marsanne pairs best with all types of seafood and shellfish, especially the richer varieties like lobster, crab, shrimp, seabass, clams and mussels. It also works well with cream sauces and with a diverse array of cheese, both hard and soft.
Why: Open a bottle with someone special who appreciates how things of integrity only improve with age.
