FOR THE 2015 VINTAGE – 17/20
There’s a note of orange here, as if there were a touch of benevolent botrytis. Complex aromas of citrus and a smoky quality. On the palate, even more deliciously complex. Spice, sour apricot, and citrus freshness. Very good. Depth, length and distinctively dry and textured. So much more to it than a typical off-dry NZ Sauvignon Blanc
