Aldi, The Exquisite Collection Lyme Block, Devon, 2018

Tasted by: Tina Gellie
(at the Aldi Spring Tasting, London, 06 Mar 2019)
Drinking Window: 2019 - 2019
Made for Aldi by Devon's Lyme Bay Winery, this Bacchus-based blend is very much in the lean, green, herbal spectrum. It's a great alternative to Loire Sauvignon Blanc, with piercing acidity, pretty floral lift and a tart grapefruit bite. One for fresh asparagus and tomato dishes.
