| TASTING NOTE: This is beautifully ripe and inviting on the nose showing passion fruit, mango, nectarine and subtle herbaceous characters, followed by a succulent palate that is concentrated and punchy. The wine offers lovely fruit purity backed by bright acidity, finishing persistent and delicious. At its best: now to 2019. Score - 93 (Sam Kim, wineorbit.co.nz, Jan. 2016) |
