i'll echo vino verde's comments : this is NOT your typical New Zealand style, tart SB with relatively high acidity. It is rich (pineapple, honey) and flavorful, relatively full bodied. At first it finished a little bitter...but after two hours opened, this disipated and the wine finished well. An outstanding QPR.

I’m always looking for an exceptional unoaked.

i'LL echo the tasting note from Caruso, except that I did not find the length or intensity that he/she found. Still a fine QPR at $12

nice combo of acidity and fruit without a surfeit of oak; vanilla, citrus and pineapple on the palate with a decent finish...nice ! 90
