{screwcap, 14.5%} Youthful, typical aromas of mint, red berries, soft vanilla oak. Perhaps a menthol tinge to the flavours is the only thing to hint at the cool-climate origin of this wine; it has medium-bodied weight, spicy mint flavours, and a thickish sort of medium-length finish that carries an alcoholic signature. Very youthful, sure; but is still only really a 5-year proposition. Fair, but unmemorable.
