Pretty light green color; floral, lots of lime, some sweet fruit in the nose and up front on the palate, slight slate then other minerals come into play, very sour lime and green fruit on the very dry finish, good wine but not the most noble.

Once again this wine over delivers, it really reminds me of Italy, the fresh sweet fruit, plum, cherry, smooth texture, floral qualities, anise, slight bitterness, juicy, easy drinking, a very nice option on a warm Summer day at the lake.

Really nice wine drinking near peak (though others are very youthful), this had lots of dried red cherry, roses, and cedar; the palate showed good texture but drying tannin that made it not the best pairing on a warm Summer day.

Much leaner and more balanced compared to the lush and exotic '09 version of this, very firm and focused with lots of tart crunchy red fruit, sour cherry, c ranberry, and slightly underripe strawberry, was having trouble getting much nuance out of the nose but the palate was firm showing mineral texture and acidic backbone, mid was solid too; very young and one dimensional compared to what it should be in at least 5 more years; 91+.

Another good showing for this more Burgundian styled Aussie, great crisp acid, golden apple and lemon, medium weight but solid mid palate, nice focus; really well done.
