89/100 45

This new label is a cut above the regular label in price and quality. It shows significantly greater intensity. A medium/dry style with lovely fruit purity and an impeccable texture that is dry but not obviously tannic. Classy wine.

Tasted: May 2010   Closure: S'cap    Average price: NZD $32 (~USD $24)
