  A light, delicate floral nose A clean, fresh taste, relatively rich and dry - not overly fruity but well made and very drinkable. 85-86pts.

  Pretty much in line with the previous bottle (see my tasting note 5/3/09). Just seems a touch more complex on nose and palate, with some tropical and creamy notes and flavours coming through. Overall impression pretty much the same. Good easy drinking midweek quaffer/party wine.

  Aromas of ripe apple fruit with fresh mineral notes and a touch of stone fruit. Zippy, racy palate with a good initial attack of fruit. However this seems to fade quite quickly and there is little persistence through the length. Having said that, the wine does feel quite well balanced, with no alcohol burn or astringency. So with the racy freshness, this would be a good party wine or mid week quaffer.
