Tasting note
Opens with that sexy, flinty, smoky scent, all crushed rocks and minerals amongst green melon, lime and lemon rind, floral things. The palate is tight, racy, scintillating for acidity and its, again, mineral-charged feel. Amongst the skeletal, mouthwatering feel, a drizzle of juiciness to keep you hounding at your glass. It's pure, driven, ultra-refreshing, brilliant drinking. Drink: 2017-2021. Score - 94. (Mike Bennie, winefront.com.au, Jan. 17, 2017)
This dry and greenish yellow coloured white showcases a simple nose releasing fruity and vegetal scents. You will be charmed with this medium-bodied wine revealing a broad texture and a medium finish.
"From renowned New Zealand producer, this white exhibits wonderful tropical fruits, citrus and lemongrass along with texture, juicy acidity and minerality." Kim Giesbrecht - Portfolio Manager for Wines of Australia and New Zealand, Beer and Refreshment Beverages
