“Brilliant straw yellow. A surprisingly piercing nose with more than a hint of gooseberry, but more perfumed with aeration. Blind, I would have guessed it was Sauvignon Blanc, but unfolding more personality on the palate with grassy citrus fruit and bitter almond on the finish. Clean and a little technical but not devoid of pleasure.”

“Pale orange pink, this is ramato in anything but name. Savoury, salty notes with hints of bread crust over brooding apricot with a hint of flowers. Subdued at first, and then layers of apricot and peach with spice notes and bitter-orange twang on the finish. It would be a shame to not serve this with a Dover sole. Still plenty of life ahead of it.”

“Lychee fruit with kiwi and lemon undertones. Very fresh and bright aromas. Full-to medium-bodied with vivid acidity and a bright, tangy finish. Lime and some graphite come through. New single-vineyard wine from here. Drink now.”

“Gorgeous aromas of cantaloup melon, rose petals and pear flowers. Medium-bodied, this grows on the palate, delivering white pepper and peaches with some honeysuckle. Sophisticated. New single-vineyard wine from here. Drink now.”

“Extremely exotic, with peach-pie and cooked-apple character. Lemony undertones, as well as some honeysuckle and honey. Layered and flavorful. New single-vineyard wine from here. Drink now.”
