90 Points

Wednesday, July 15, 2015 - Appearance: Bright and clear, it has light lemon color, with watery rims and legs.
Nose: Clean, with medium (+) intensity aromas of green fruit of pear, citrus fruit of grapefruit and lemon, autolytic notes of yeast, dairy notes of cream, maturity notes of rubber, oak notes of toast. The wine is developing.
Palate: Dry with medium acidity, the wine has high alcohol and medium body. It has medium (+) flavors of dairy notes of cream, oak notes of butterscotch, citrus fruit of grapefruit, green fruit of pear. The wine has a medium finish.
Conclusion: Good quality Australian Verdelho, with an intense nose showing plenty of complexity, which demonstrates how this varietal can ripen and showing all the different aromas if it is ripe and well-made. The palate is in balance, with good concentration in flavors, reasonable complexity and even though a bit heavy it does not have an overpowering burning feel despite its high alcohol level. With a nice finish, the wine is ready to drink and not supposed for further ageing.
