Derwent & Coal Valley wineries; 4/20/2011-4/21/2011 (Hobart, Tasmania): {screwcap, 12%, A$27} Youthful aromas; musk, chalk, floral notes. Generally pretty low key nose however. The palate is crisp, fresh and more appley than I expected. There's a presistent spritzy quality to the medium-length finish, despite the wine being only light-medium bodied. Perhaps a touch of talcum-powdery dustiness also serves to give weight to the palate, which carries its acid well, and offers a pretty even presence along the tongue. Always a good wine; this vintage is no exception.
