this wine is special. tart dry and acidic right up to the edge where it might be too much, but just a wallop of fruit (think lime and tropical) that keeps it in check. intense but finessed. terrific!

Russk Stacole tasting at the Moore building. One of my favorite whites from the tasting. 91 plus points. Buy some. By the way, I think I tasted this one rather than the Big Brother call the noble. But not sure.

Vibrant nose of lime, green apples and mineral(petrol). Medium bodied and dry, nice firm acidity showing lime,citrus, green apples and vibrant mineral likewise the nose. Beautiful racy and a bit tight style.

Fresh flowery nose. Crisp, clear and mineral mouthfeel. Also some green apple and lime. Overall a balanced and flawless New Zealander.
