Description / Reviews
"Named after the iconic Wineglass Bay on the spectacular Freycinet Peninsula nearby, it is produced from meticulously tended 40 year old vines, all hand pruned and hand harvested. Fermented and matured in predominately seasoned French barriques, with a small percentage of new oak giving the wine subtle structure and length. Texture and complexity is enhanced without obvious oak characters. The wine is lively and exuberant featuring vibrant gooseberry, citrus and passionfruit aromas. The generous palate is awash with an array of tropical fruits, ruby grapefruit and soft herbs and offers a creamy smooth mid-palate with subtle layers of complexity and impressive length." - Freycinet, Winemaker
"Intense herbal aromas—passionfruit, makrut lime leaf, chopped basil, fresh and appealing, while the palate delivers a shock of sweetness which is probably due more to alcohol/glycerol and intense ripe fruit than residual sugar. The finish is long and clean, thanks to nicely handled acidity and phenolics. Good fruit concentration here." - 92 Points, Huon Hooke, The Real Review
