New Zealand London Annual Trade Tasting (Lindley Hall, Royal Horticultural Halls): The nose shows very ripe red and black fruit, so young it almost smells like must, inky notes with sweet oak and spices, vanilla and floral too. In the palate the wine is rich, round, very ripe red and black fruit again, vanilla, plum, fresh, silky tannins, oak needs time to settle, med to long finish. Very good quality, drink now or hold 89+ (for now)
