| TASTING NOTE: Concentrated sauvignon blanc showing good freshness and purity with gooseberry, capsicum, tree fruit, nectarine and tropical fruit flavours. Quite a textural wine that has good weight [and] is quite silken. An appealing combination of intensity and purity. Drink 2016 to 2021. Score - 95 (Bob Campbell, MW, bobcampbell.nz, Jan. 1, 2016) |
