About Me: I've been interested in wine (mostly New Zealand) for many years now. I'm not really an expert - strictly an enthusiastic amateur.

| Tasting Notes & Comments |
The colour was very pale bright golden yellow. The bouquet showed sharp crisp citrus and grassy tropical fruit. There was a strong gooseberry, pineapple and tropical fruit taste, with stalky grass, and a very crisp acid finish. This was a very crisp, clean and quite complex wine, quite impressive. |

| Tasting Notes & Comments |
The colour was a medium-deep ruby red. The bouquet showed smokey oak and mushroom and intense, slightly spicy, berry fruit. The taste was very smooth and well integrated, with intense cherry fruit flavours, some savoury wood flavours, and very nice balance. This wine was still fresh and fruity after 4 years (it was sealed with a screw cap). It won gold at the London International Wine Challenge. One of the best wines I have tried, but fairly expensive at around NZ$80 from the winery. |
