The colour was light pale greenish gold. The bouquet had crisp lime and floral fruit. There was gooseberry fruit and capsicum, crisp citrus acid finish. This wine was quite complex combination of flavours, and nicely balanced.

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.
