89/100 45

Interesting wine with attractive apricot and other tree fruit flavours plus a suggestion of spice. The wine has good mouthfeel and a smooth texture. Moderately high alcohol contributes towards some warmth and richness. Medium/dry but with a satisfyingly dry finish.

Tasted: Oct 2009   Closure: S'cap    Average price: NZD $20 (~USD $17)
