I ummed and ahhed on whether this wine deserved a 90 rating, or slightly less, but its sheer drinkability means I'm consuming faster than I can write, so it rather decided for itself. I also bought a half case on the strength of a bottle in a restaurant, and not one has disappointed.
Really pale, clear, watery looking wine. Very light bodied. Which means that the powerful, scented, aromatic (teetering on the edge of almost floral) fruity nose comes as a great surprise. Again, on the palate, a lovely refreshing wine with plenty of fruit and spice, maybe a hint of pepper but it's not prevalent.
Note to self to buy more and discover more of the winery and the grape. Astonishing value at a tenner a bottle.
