  September 28, 2023 - Just a quick review from this Pernod Ricard Group Winery , which i note is being heavily discounted across Aust. ok. You can buy for $10-13 Aud at the moment and i also note this Liquor Empire are thinking os Selling off Labels like this and Jacobs Creek as the Recession moves on across the world.. Anyway thats Business.
  2022 Vintage in Malborough NZ was a HUGE Vintage in crop size so expect many bargain wines from this large crop .. just saying
  On opening with have typical lovely lite green straw in colour with a lemon rim at Sept 2023. .nice as expected ..
  Again on opening lifted lemongrass , gooseberries and herbaceous flavours as expected , well balanced and typical for this style , which means early drinking ok. Perfect lunch wine at Rest. esp. as you cant go wrong and not get too ripped of on price.
  On the palate we have ripe lush fruits similar to above , nice mid palate richness and that cleansing acidity on the finish which makes these wine great value for money .. No oak here thank god... Great style and perfect with seafood for lunch ... QPR $13 is good value these days ..Worth checking out as 2023 will be a Horror Vintage coming due too the heavy rains ... just saying . enjoy now this wine

  June 30, 2023 - Fairly light - nice fruit notes that change slightly as the wine warms up. Good value for a wine that will pair well with many different foods.

  June 7, 2023 - Much better after it warms up slighty. Chilled, it shows peach, citrus minerals and herbal. Once it warmed up, more grapefruit and citrus showed up, better balance, good acidity.
