The colour was clear bright pale greenish gold. The bouquet had strong crisp citrus and topical fruit. There was citrus fruit, capsicum and grassy flavours, medium steely citrus acid finish. This wine was quite complex, and very crisp and clean.

Note 1 I am not really a wine expert (just an enthusiastic amateur), so please don't take my recommendations as anything more than a rough guide to these wines. I can take no responsibility if you buy a lot, on my recommendation, and then regret it!

Note 2 You may not agree with my evaluation of these wines as a lot of this is quite subjective. I tend to put a lot of emphasis on complexity and intense characteristic flavours and bouquet, so if you disagree you might just have different priorities.
