I tasted the 2014 vintage of this wine on 04 Jan 2016 when it was 2 years old and gave it a rating of ok+.
The colour was pale medium bright gold. The bouquet had stone fruit, and crisp grassy capsicum. There was gooseberry and tropical fruit, and a long crisp mineral acid finish. This wine had strong varietal fruits, with balanced with dry steely acid.

Average (3.8):

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.
