86/100 45

Serious wine with concentrated flavours suggesting melon, tree fruit/nectarine, apple and wild herbs. Richly textured with good weight and mouth feel. A complex and satisfying dry wine with at least moderate cellaring potential. Subtle oak adds extra interest.

Tasted: Jan 2011   Closure: S'cap    Average price: NZD $35 (~USD $27)
