$35, 12.8% alcohol, screwcap, Great Western/Grampians.

This wine offers juicy fruit flavour and a good deal of it, all set within a context of dryness. Nashi pear, crisp apple, smoke, mineral and chalk, with a drives of charred lime and floral characters running throughout. There’s almost a tonic-like aspect to this wine; it will work best at the dining table. 90 points.
