91/100 45

Luscious wine in a fairly sweet style with a backbone of fine acidity that prevents any suggestion of cloying. Long with appealing mineral, nectarine and mango flavours. The first Late Harvest wine from this great vineyard which probably makes it quite collectible.

Tasted: Jan 2008   Closure: S'cap    Average price: NZD $35 (~USD $27)
