Very pale straw colour. Bouquet dominated by peach and honey. Flavour also dominated by peach and honey, starts sweet and then finishes more tart. Moderate body with a clean finish. Would definitely have this and it’s a nice alternative to some of the new world Sauvignon blancs that can be sweeter and heavier.

Not my favourite. Deep red brick colour. Bouquet of earth and slate. Flavours are very light, and with certain foods, almost tastes fishy. Not very complex.

Moderately deep red / garnet colour. Bouquet of some earthiness and chocolate, mixed with dark fruits. Flavours of red and black berries, followed by some herbal and forest floor notes. Body is moderate, and finish is moderately long with some peppery notes.
