By the glass at the BA lounge. Fresh bottle. Greenish/ yellow colour. Petrolly, touch of citrus , touch of caramel, floral nose. Good acidity on the palate, mineral, long , no real sign of oak here. Would have loved a bit more weight on the palate but a very nice surprise. 89-90

Taste of Tasmania 15/16 (Hobart, Tasmania): {screwcap, 12.5%, A$33} Lime and lemon nose. A bone-dry, high-acid effort, very tart at this young age. Citrus flavours are framed by a powdery, talc-like softness. The finish fades surprisingly fast, despite the medium-bodied weight of the flavours. Odd sort of a wine; maybe time will help.

Jan 2016 showing signs of aging flavour profile. Some crispness, fruity and mild acid. Very nice.
