FLAT ROCK |
A REPEAT of the currently available 2021 Vintages Essential (**/**+) that was last released on July 16, 2022 at $17.95. Bright day-glo light orange colour. Spicy, bright, ripe, apple-rhubarb nose with some minerally, youthful, initial reductive notes that dissipate after breathing. Slightly off dry, medium-light bodied, spicy, tangy, fresh, ripe apple-raspberry-cherry flavours with a crisp finish. A ready-to-drink new blend of 56% Gamay, 31% Riesling and 13% Gewurztraminer that has 11.5% alcohol and 6 g/L residual sugar. Screwcap closure. |

TASTING NOTE: Bronze and pink-hued, pure, palate-pleasing ambrosia pours easily emitting fruit-forward aromas with blood orange, strawberry, pear, apple and quince jelly to the fore. It's tang-infused on the palate expressing itself as pure lemon pastille, Key lime pie and citrus-peel marmalade galore. This is medium-plus bodied with plenty of tang, pizzazz and piquant spice. It lingers on the racy finish and lip-smacking aftertaste. The winery suggests pouring alongside seasonal summer salad, or grilled vegetables, or cheese... or all three. Drink or cellar. Exceptional Value! Score - 90 (Vic Harradine, winecurrent.com, Aug. 15, 2022) |
