Classic New Zealand in STYLE. Gooseberry, grapefruit, fresh cut grass, and perfect acidity.

Feb 14th, 2015Pros:
* gentle acid (for the price point: not overly acidic)
* fresh grassy nose
* basic, unobtrusive, easy to sip
* $11 price point
Cons:
* generally thin mouthfeel, lacking overall texture
* underwhelming front-to-back fruit
Summary:
* nice wine for the price point
* no standout elements to write home about.
* share with a "non wine drinker" who wants something simple to pair with mild white fish
* overall enjoyable, but with a wold of wine to explore, I'd probably only re-buy if I were in a pinch.

Far too acidic and grassy. Not even worth the $10.
