Made by Yealands Estate.

Gone is the drab, austere wine made by Highfield Estate and in comes this pungent capsicum filled wine by Yealands. No tomato leaf which is unusual for Yealands. In fact, there is no fruit at all. Just peppers.

Nice and only £6 with the 25% off any 6 bottles.

Disappointing visits to 3 stores. No arneis, PC Chab is '10, in fact no Santa Rita, no Vineyards CB, no VdP Marcel...Bah!.
I have a couple of this Tf MSB coming with groceries, if it's as good as G says, I will get some more.
The VM is £15

Ah! Never done any 'boosting'. Must look into that process.

I haven't seen it yet. It's £4 more than the VM WR ( when reduced ). Even I might pass on this one.

I bought the finest* North Row Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc with a load of other TF branded wines, The Villa Maria North Row at 25% off, is 25p more than our benchmark MSB, before the voucher boosting.

Boosting is as follows:

Right, this reminds me of Hughie Green, "Double Your Money, or Open the box" So you need to know what you are buying and what you are spending.

Yeah, bought one as part of a boosting and discount bundle of offers to try, and to sample the vintage at this level.

Agree with Goose, good value and what you may have expected from budget MSB in previous years and did not receive ! Reminds me of 2007.
The background wallpaper is very typical - ripe gooseberry with some elegance, and it is clean and pale, indicating a good vintage for Marlborough. Pungency power and aroma in "general" is textbook stuff. Acidity is balanced.

I would add that I think this is best as a drink at one sitting MSB. TN date 01/12/13

If this '13 vintage sample is anything to go by, then the dimensional and single vineyard / climat wines at bigger prices could be exceptional. I wonder which of the valleys, and who in particular, made the most ethereal of styles in 2013 ?

We shall find out - eventually

Picked up a couple in the 25% offers. Denzil Washington again, he's getting everywhere !
Still nice. A bit edgy but nice.
