Spicy, green notes, herbal notes, green fruit, lime, lemon leaf, grassy notes. Palate is quite green, high acidity, med body, nerve, feels unsettled still, steely, long finish. With time, it gets rounder, warm stone fruit but still grassy
Australia, South Australia, Mount Lofty Ranges, Piccadilly Valley
Oak dominated profile, nutty, low in fruit, green stone fruit, some roasted notes. Palate follows the same profile, sweet oak, almond, walnut, again same fruit profile, youthful, a bit green, thick, full body, high acidity, long finish
Full on grassy, pyrazine nose, extrovert profile, youthful, flinty, palate follows the same pattern, grassy, mineral, steely, high acidity, med body, long finish
Low intensity, a bit numb even, lean, low in fruit, compact. Palate shows high acidity, med body, structured, high tensity, green fruit, there is a raw veggie element here, tight, long finish
Rather broad, with riper stone fruit profile, there is a nutty layer in the back, freshness though, tangerine sweet notes, orange zest and blossom. Palate follows the same pattern, the oak is more upfront, tangerine, sweet notes, med to full body, high acidity, med to long finish
