{screwcap, 12%} Youthful; slightly waxy, lanolin-like texture; flavours are a mix of pear, apricot, with a touch of browning apple. Soft but serviceable acid; medium weight, with a somewhat dense texture; pleasant wine, even if the finish is a bit short - I really should keep one of these for 7 or 8 years and see what happens.

Light weight and clean but ultimately a bit on the boring side. I wasn't expecting earth shattering weight but this does tread a soft line. Mild lemon and some oil to taste although the nose did promise a tad more weight with some lifted tropical fruits. Very much drink now.

{screwcap, 12%} Pale straw. Straw flavours and aromas too, with hints of pear and apple, but always with a slightly savoury earthiness to it. Light-bodied, oak-free, and with low-medium acidity, it's dry on the finish, but only about medium length. Respectable.

Australian Alternative Varieties Wine Show (Mildura Showgrounds): Only (briefly) tasted once, so brief note. Very soft with lemon and a touch of 'tropical fruit.' Nothing earth-shattering, but lovely if you like simple wines. Better than the 2012.
