Fluorescent hues of emerald feijoas, golden kiwi and juicy limes. A plume of powdery talc and star jasmine. There is ease and grace here with a vintage that had the same effect of growers, thankfully. A radiant wine with the intensity of lime cordial and flow of a trickling river stream. Far too easy to enjoy, it will disappear before your eyes. The ripeness of fruit is spot on and would be highlighted by piquant goats cheese and fava bean salad. Drink now or let it rest for another decade in the back of your cellar for a showstopper later in life.
