(349 views) | | Tasted by Glenn Gilbert on 4/10/2022 & rated 90 points: 13% alcohol; imported by Foley Family Wines, Santa Rosa, California; screw top with an aroma of alcohol, metal and sweet lemongrass; medium legs, pale 24 k gold; nose of generic fruit, fresh air and nature, like springtime in a New Zealand valley; if air freshener manufacturers could only capture that! opened, put in the fridge and tasted 36 hours later at about 15 degrees C; full bodied, like walking deeper into the valley that my nose sensed lay dead ahead; too much of a good thing makes the back of the tongue think it's almost turning bitter, but not quite; long finish calls out for pairing with a fresh fruit platter or possibly with a sweet pastry like a peach or other stone fruit pie (392 views) | | Tasted by Zinslut on 3/22/2022 & rated 84 points: Moderate aromas of a typical NZ SB , gooseberrry, lime, pineapple, grass, and comice pear. On the palate it is less dynamic, concentrated, or expressive in ripe frui or intensity. More green and dry with a limited finish for $12 it’s drinkable it is refreshing but just limited but definitely a NZ experience. (248 views) |
