"Delicious, the first time this wine has been released with aromas of herby peppermint, appley freshness and a world of lively zing. Sip it slowly - only 250 cases are made from a specific block in the vineyard - and fall in love slowly with the delightful harmony of freshness, texture, citrus, green apple and pineapple adorings. The really smashing thing about this fresh beauty is how long it lasts after you've sipped it. Like falling in love for the first time, you never quite shake it off. Nor would you want to!
