This single vineyard wine has hopped and skipped around the Hunter Valley. The 2014 came from the Sunshine vineyard, 2015 Wilderness Road and now this 2016 comes from a Majors Lane vineyard. I'm hoping winemaker Mike de Iuliis finds a happy home here. Whilst the 2015 was impressive, I feel this is a notch above.
A leaner style, citrus fruit is flanked by green herbs. Crunchy apple like acidity rides long and the mid palate, whilst tightish, delivers a moreish factor. Great drinking with anything from the ocean.
Drink now but will age long term if desired.
