The colour was bright yellow gold, it was quite oily, with quite heavy legs. This wine had a strong citrus melon fruit bouquet with some stalky wood. The taste was quite full, and it had a buttery feel, lime citrus fruit, and a crisp dry oak finish. This wine was fairly intense, a well balanced medium bodied style. Recommended by Wine Estate magazine.

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.
