The appearance showed clear bright watery green gold colours. The bouquet was very intense, with dry steely floral tropical gooseberry fruit. The taste was very dry with intense fruity flavours, and was clean and crisp. This wine had a great bouquet, and was intense, it probably needs some ageing.

Note 1: I am not really a wine expert (just an enthusiastic amateur), so please don't take my recommendations as anything more than a rough guide to these wines. I can take no responsibility if you buy a lot of this particular wine, on my recommendation, and then regret it!

Note 2: You may not fully agree with my evaluation of these wines, as a lot of this is quite subjective. I tend to put a lot of emphasis on complexity and intense characteristic and varietal flavours and bouquet, so if you disagree you might just have different priorities.



I usually write a blog post about once a week. The latest post can be viewed here: Deranged Rants: Many of them are totally feral, unhinged, and totally irrational. (posted 2024-11-13 at 17:55:14). I do podcasts too!. You can listen to my latest podcast, here: OJB's Podcast 2024-08-22 Stirring Up Trouble: Let's just get every view out there and fairly debate them..
