2015 Tahbilk Marsanne 1927 Vines (Victoria)

Where the current 2022 release Marsanne tastes of honeysuckle, honeydew melon and apples and the 2016 Museum Release of the same wine has morphed into a toasty, voluminous and resolutely spicy iteration, this 2015 1927 Vines Marsanne is savory, dry, herbal and littered with mixed grasses (bison grass, wheat grass, hay, straw and lemongrass). The acidity is a little green, the phenolics are chalky and streamlined, and there is a drop of tropical juiciness through the finish. How awesome. Exciting. Tight as anything. The drinking window [2022-2032] may be very conservative. 95 points
