Critic 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 : This wine was my least favorite of the
wines I tasted. It tasted very
strongly of alcohol, which was not pleasant, and the aftertaste lasted for a
really long time. It was not very
sweet and the alcohol taste overwhelmed everything else.
I did not have this wine with food.
