I tasted the 2014 vintage of this wine on 16 Aug 2015 when it was 1 year old and gave it a rating of good.
The colour was light-medium yellow gold. The bouquet had crisp citrus grassy tropical fruit. There was citrus capsicum stalky fruit, with a dry crisp mineral finish. This was a very crisp and clean style, with fruit and crisp dry balance.

Average (4):

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.
