So precise and chiseled. I will be buying some as this is a steal when it comes to Donnhoff wines.

this matched grilled prawns in sweet chilli sauce quite magically. the spice seemed to increase the length to fantastic proportions. i will ensure that my next bottle accompanies something similar.

pale and clear. really dry. fresh, acidic and zingy. perhaps needs a little time to become more complex.
