Aromas of stone fruit and melon with some spicy notes.

Pink grapefruit shines through with the bright acid drive.

A medium to full bodied pallet with a lovely texture.

A wine that assertively expresses the qualities of a fine vintage.

It's very expressive and polished, with supple, sweet strawberry fruit, juicy acidity and medium weight tannins all pulling in the same direction.

A hint of sweet spice on the finish only adds to the allure.

Aromatic plum and raspberries with freshness and balance, the wine has a round central core of red fruit that gives way to a complex mid-palate full of cassis, dark cherry, spice and vanilla.

A soft floral nose with hints of thyme, dried strawberry and charcuterie all give way to a palate full of refreshing red berry fruits and spice with a long savoury finish.

Rich flavour with lively acidity - fresh and salty and a mineral essence that lingers on the long, persistent finish.  Distinct volcanic inerality.

A very clean, medium bodied wine that is both interesting and delicous with good acidity giving it good length.

Warm & rich with layers of flavour - hints of blackberry and dried plums, even notes of coffee.

An absolute cracker for this price!

A lively Chardonnay with citrus aromas hinting at mature lime and grapefruit.

The palate is driven by a beautiful fresh acidity and delivers a texture driven very persistent finish.
