Pertaringa Scarecrow Sauvignon Blanc 2005

Light green gold in hue, the bouquet on this SB from McLaren Vale was fairly muted, with soft powdery citrus, passionfruit and herbs, possibly sage. On the palate it was soft, reasonably balanced acids with orange sherberty flavours, with a grassy herbaceous flavours at the back. Needed a touch more length and structure, but quite an enjoyable softer type SB, in a very elegant stretched Bordeaux bottle.
50+4+13+14+7 = 88/100
