Shy aroma of kerosine and acacia blossoms. Light and dry on the palate with crisp clean acids, a hint of spritz, and a short acid finish. Nothing special, but clean and balanced, a perfect wine for a summer afternoon. 50 + 15 + 15 + 8 = 88.

Nose: medium to full; complex with lots of fresh and dried tropical fruits
Body/flavor: medium body; complex flavors of fresh and dried tropical fruits; cinnamon and vanilla. Clean; excellent acid balance
Aftertaste: lingering
This wine continues to evolve and surprise. For a $14 bottle of wine, now 5 years old, this was a bargain. Also a powerful statement of the quality of so many wines we might dismiss because they are inexpensive!

Very good. Pale, clear, lemon-green. Clean, medium, developing nose of lemon, lime and honeysuckle. Dry, medium (+) softening acid, medium alcohol (11%), medium body, medium (+) flavour intensity, with lemon, lime, green apple and honey. Very good, despite the medium body, this has impressive intensity and complexity. Can drink now (in some ways at peak?), but this has potential for continued development with further ageing. Screwcap.

very impressive and aging well - not too dry, hints of honey but still with a zest that keeps you going back for more.
