Tahbilk Estate Marsanne 2023 continues the legacy of one of the world’s rarest and most age-worthy varietals. Grown on the historic estate in Victoria—home to the oldest and largest single holding of Marsanne vines globally—this wine speaks of heritage and craftsmanship. First planted at Tahbilk in the 1860s and with surviving vines dating back to 1927, this Marsanne is an Australian icon and a benchmark for the style.

The 2023 vintage faced the challenges of a once-in-a-century flood, yet it emerged with remarkable depth and purity. The bouquet offers a lively mix of intense floral aromas, lemon zest, citrus blossom, and tropical fruits. The palate is crisp, clean, and mineral-edged, providing freshness and vibrancy that make it instantly appealing in its youth. This Marsanne shines with Mediterranean fare or light Asian cuisine, especially dishes featuring shellfish or grilled vegetables. With cellaring, it evolves gracefully, developing richer textures and layers of honeysuckle, marmalade, and roasted nuts—perfect alongside seafood curries, creamy risottos, or roast chicken with herbs.

Awarded 95 Points and a Gold Medal by Jeni Port in the Halliday Wine Companion, and produced by Tahbilk, a 5 Red Star Winery and Halliday’s Winery of the Year, this wine is as collectable as it is versatile. Family-owned since 1860, Tahbilk continues to set the standard for Australian Marsanne, delivering age-worthy whites of both global relevance and regional character.
