| JONTY'S DUCKS PEKIN WHITE 2015 WO Paarl |
| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
AVONDALE |
| Very bright very pale straw colour. Intense, rather spicy, fairly complex, faintly toasty, warm ripe apple-melon-lime puree nose with some key lime pie notes. Slightly off dry, medium bodied, quite well structured, slightly spicy, honeyed, ripe melon-apple puree flavours with a lingering, gently cedary finish. This REPEAT organic blend has 13.5% and now according to the LCBO only 4 g/L residual sugar with the same lot number L4315 on the back label. Screwcap closure. TONY ASPLER / 89-points / BEST BUY - Smoky, minerally, peach pit nose; medium-bodied, dry, fresh, peachy-citrus flavour; lovely mouth-feel and good length. Great value. A REPEAT of the recommended best buy 2015 (**+) last released on February 4, 2017 at $15.95. |

A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: Another lovely, fullish, flavourful, ripe but balanced, seriously stony and fruity white here from Avondale, a staunchly organic producer based in Paarl. This has quite amazing depth and length in the price category. Lovely smoky minerality. I'd almost think this was being sold at 50% off the regular price, Score - 90 (John Szabo, MS, winealign.com, Jan. 26, 2017) |
