The colour was pale clear gold. There was a strong typical fruit, capsicum and crisp acid bouquet. The taste had passionfruit and tropical fruit, and a long crisp mineral acid finish. This wie had intense varietal characters, and was very clean and crisp. Won gold in NZ international wine show.

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.
