One word is key here and that’s personality. This wine draws you in with classic Marlborough vibes of lychee, passionfruit and freshly cut grass. The follow-through is better than many and translates in harmonious notes that pack a punch between fruit, acidity and juiciness. The line and length are in balance and work in unison to produce a wine that delivers impressive bang for buck! Bravo to winemaker Hugh Crichton who brings a swag of knowledge and energy to the table here. A wine truly reflective of the region and vineyards where the grapes are grown.
