Description / Reviews

"Pale gold in colour with green hues. Intense classic lime fruit aromas. The bottle aged characters of toast, clove oil and marmalade have started to emerge and combine with the still fresh citrus and white flowers of its youth. Shows great length and depth with concentrated power, pristine fresh lime cordial overlaid with toasted brioche, sage oil and lime marmalade. The wine finishes with a fresh but soft natural acidity which balances the flavour intensity. This wine will continue to age gracefully in the bottle for 10 or more years." - Winemaker Notes

"I just love these older releases from the Pewsey Vale team. It's straight to those wonderful toasty, complex elements that blossom with careful cellaring of the variety. Straw in the glass with a myriad of aromas presenting themselves. Bickford's lime cordial, lemon barley, dried shiitake mushrooms, some distant curry leaf notes, those hippocampus-tweaking notes of my father's workshop when I was a little'un; it's a wine that invokes memories, sometimes deeply lost in the consciousness, that gently bubble back up into view. Stony and composed on the palate with a marble-like sheen to its travel, the finish stretching out for some time indeed. It's such a lovely wine." - 97 points, Dave Brookes for Halliday Wine Companion
