Winery Review: Predominantly fermented at cool temperatures in stainless steel tanks, with a small portion barrel fermented in older French oak, the wine is blended, bottled, and released three to four months after fermentation. The nose shows fragrant gooseberry characters with underlying passionfruit and lychee aromas. Minerally, stalky notes are evident and provide additional complexity. The palate is a fine and elegant style with zesty lemon acidity and length. Varietal characters of passionfruit pulp and gooseberry dominate with hints of lemon peel in the background.
My Review: A good wine in my opinion. It is a fine and elegant style with zesty lemon taste included. Feel as though it would be a better wine to have with food to compliment. Packed quite an unsuspecting punch for a wine that is fairly smooth to drink.
