Really nice quality. Fresh and clean, with ripe citrus (lime and grapefruit), barely ripe stone fruit, green herbs and some white floral notes. Medium (+) acidity, medium alcohol (13%) and medium (+) minerality. Medium (+) flavor intensity and length. Much more balanced and complex than your stereotypical NZ offering. Drinking well now, not intended for ageing.

Cat's pee and gooseberry nose - intense old style NZ.
Very distinctive; nice controlled acidity, gooseberry, a touch of flint, verbena and long finish
