Silver 4 star ribbon Bob Campbell MW The Real Review

Moderately sweet white wine with sweetness restrained by tangy and slightly hard acidity. Good varietal definition and appealing purity with a lingering finish. Not at all cloying” 27 Jun 2024 Bob Campbell

A tantalising mix of luscious, honey and ripe peach flavours with crisp, green apple and lemon curd characters. Nice sweet-sour tension creates appealing energy and a vibrant and lingering finish” 07 Jun 2024 Bob Campbell

Michael Cooper MA ONZM 4 star rating

“The lively 2023 vintage (****) was estate-grown and hand-harvested, with some ‘noble rot’ influence. Bright, light lemon/green, it is fragrant and light-bodied (9.5 per cent alcohol by volume), with good intensity of fresh, citrusy flavours, hints of apricot and honey, and a sweet (161 grams/litre of residual sugar), crisp finish” 5 Sep 2024 Michael Cooper

Description

A lifted bouquet of ripe apricots, pineapple and nectarine, with a rich and lush taste of apricot nectar, marmalade and Luisa plums on the palate.  The long, lucious finish makes this wine very moreish!

Food match suggestion:  Pair with strong cheeses,  lemon cheesecake or panna cotta.
