This wine is quite special. It’s complex, it’s rich, it’s seductive and it’s just plain more-ish. It’s the full box and dice. Lemon pie, cream, marshmallow and strawberry-like flavours cruise through the mouth in the most convincing – not to mention appealing – style. It’s a beauty. There’s a citrus-rind character to the finish and it works as the perfect exclamation mark. Bravo. 94 points.
