Tasting - 2009 Takutai


Name: Takutai
Variety: Pinot Gris
Region: Nelson
Country: New Zealand
Year: 2009
Price: $6.95

Winery review: Fresh, bright Gala apple flavours dominate in this lively wine. Moderately sweet in style but balanced by fine tannins that add a little spice, and a touch of coarseness, to the finish. Great value at this price. - Tasting notes, 80 points

My review: Not much coming through to the nose, managed to pick up on a golden apple aroma with hints of lemon. Very light flavors with a weak floral aspect. I thought it was quite difficult to pick up on the profile of the wine. Almost like a glass of water. Stay clear of this wine.

This wine was tasted on it's own with no food.
