  The wine appears pale ruby in color, clear, with fast legs. I perceived a flowery bouquet, roses, perhaps, and definitely cherry. On the tongue, I could only pick out cherry--almost Jolly Rancher-like--but light. The body is light and acidic with a medium finish.
  
  This is a nice wine that really opened up after a couple of hours.

  Hitting beautifully. Good wine with spicy Thai beef noodles. Who knew the kiwis could make wine.

  Slight clearing on edges. Nose of raspberry, boysenberry, stewed rhubarb, coffee, slightly caramelised. Plenty of acidity and structure still left, very good.

  Very fruit forward. Loads of plum, raspberry on the palate. Some interesting spice notes and a little smoke or burning wood on the nose. After prolonged air developed some acetone in the nose, but not enough to wreck the experience. Overall more impressive on the nose than palate. Enjoyable, well balanced and flirting with too sweet, but staying inside the boundaries. Seems fully mature.
  Score : 89. Relative to expectations: +

  Translucent apple red. Baking spice and raspberry nose. Light to medium bodied, bing cherries, mint, dusty tannins, white pepper, a touch of clove, and a dry, medium to long finish. Nice and easy drinking.
