93/100 55

Rich, mouthfilling wine with an impressively smooth and fine-grained texture. Strongly varietal fresh pear flavours plus a seasoning of nutty yeast lees characters. Very attractive wine indeed that justifies its flagship status.

Tasted: Nov 2010   Closure: S'cap    Average price: NZD $35 (~USD $27)
