Crystalline pale gold. Lovely a nose of citrus and white flowers. Full-bodied with firm, ripe tannins. Will happily buy again.

A pale straw gold. Lovely lifted red berries and violet. Rounded, generous and supple. Lingering notes of spice and dark fruit. Excellent with roast lamb and herbs. Outstanding value for the price.
