93 Points – Cameron Douglas MS, Summer World of Wine,
"Fragrant, floral, fruity, varietal and enticing bouquet. Aromas of sweet lemon and white flowers, fresh apple flesh and cool-stone mineral qualities. Delicious on the palate, dry and salivating, a back bone of acidity with flavours of lemon and white fleshed tree fruits, a fine mineral and white spice quality and lengthy refreshing finish. Lot’s to like about this wine, a great aperitif style and delicious with fish sashimi."

Winery note
"The fruit for this wine was sourced from a single vineyard in the Rapaura area of Marlborough, famed for its alluvial soils. The grapes were machine harvested and gently pressed with only the free run portion being used in the wine. The juice underwent fermentation in stainless steel tank. Expressive characters of ripe citrus and grapefruit notes dominate the nose of this wine. Well balanced wine that finishes strong with floral and minerality that lingers on the palate. The palate is soft but focused with a med-dry finish that lingers on. The wine displays excellent fruit purity together with fine texture and mouth-watering acidity finishes linear and persistent. This wine is very approachable now however it will reward cellaring for the next 10 years."
