  Citrus and honeysuckle nose. Pears, sweet peas, spice, lemon and pepper on the palate. This become even more pleasing after about an hour or so.

  Tasted blind at SDG tasting
  Clear dark yellow to gold core of moderate intensity out to a wide watery rim. Little development shown - colour could indicate warm conditions, grape type or barrel aging.
  Clean nose of minerals, wet slate, straw, citrus with some yeast - moderate intensity. Youthful aromas - no oak indicated
  Dry wine with peachy/lime sweetness on the attack - moderate intensity. Moderate+ mouth cleansing acids of lime juiciness. Moderate alcohol and moderate body. Medium finish with a small touch of alcohol heat and a bit of pink pearl eraser. Touch of bitterness on the finish.
  Good quality - all the elements are there (acid/fruit in balance) to enjoy now. This is very much a drink now and enjoy wine - an excellent summer sipper.
