| TASTING NOTE: Increased barrel fermentation component, now up to 10% with a small percentage on skins. A very textural sauvignon blanc while still retaining ripe stone fruit and nectarine, plus a hint of savoury lees character. The acidity is nicely integrated but still helps drive a lengthy finish. A classy and distinctive wine in a restrained style. Drink 2016-2020. Score - 95 (Bob Campbell, MW, bobcampbell.nz, Nov. 25, 2016) |
