This would be a great wine to serve someone blindfolded. At a recent party a drinker commented that older bottles can look like a red wine. This bottle certainly proved that.
Oily and full bodied, the white peach, lemon peel and nutty (salted french almonds) and white stone fruit (including the stone- white peach kernel here is a big detail) drags long and savoury but there’s this interplay with crisp and crunchy granny Smith apple skins that really appeals too.
A whole lot of textural, detailed and adult food wine here for $17 from Dans in their ‘Cellar’ program.
It’s very good to excellent, and so distinctive in the Australian wine landscape. 92. Drink now, not too cold, in place of sherry, with good friends, anchovies and hard cheeses (that’s what I’m doing!).
