A little reduced notes at beginning, well balanced between nuts, creamy side and stonefruits fresh side. Fresh acidity supporting m+ body. Multi-layered fine structure. Totally different from the previous bottle, which has excessive green notes. I assume this one is what it should be, Sydney International Wine Competition - best white if the show, well done!

Peach, a little nuts. Excessive acidity, expect more density, another example of the very challenging vintage in Marlborough, showing too much greenish notes.

Toast, nuts, creamy texture, fresh acidity, some reduced notes at beginning, need breath in glass for a while. Perfectly match to creamy bacon pasta.
