89/100 45

Classy wine with focused pear juice flavours and a moderately silken texture. Made in a fairly dry style the wine gains complexity from contact with the yeast lees, revealing an appealing suggestion of anise/spice character on its lengthy finish.

Tasted: Oct 2009   Closure: S'cap    Average price: NZD $22 (~USD $19)
