"Initial sweetness, followed by attractive soft fruit, this is a rich, balanced wine, golden in color. In addition to the richness, there is good fresh acidity, a layer of old wood that adds complexity. Very stylish."= – Wine Enthusiast Magazine
"One of Portugal’s best-kept secrets, white Ports are fortified wines made from white grapes, such as Viosinho, Malvasia Fina, Códega and Rabigato. With a lighter style than red Ports, plus flavours of citrus fruit and peel, stone fruit and nuts, they make a refreshing option for summer drinking – particularly with tonic." – Decanter Magazine, August 10, 2021
Quality is consistent. Deeper bouquet and flavor than most Cali Zins. The Earth tones come thru beautifully about two years from Vintage. Wonderful
Red to contemplate on its own or with good food.
chianti at a good price- good value for everyday drinking
Not quite in same class as recent chianti from Wine Direct released earlier this year-but also half the price. Excellent value for a red wine: you don't have to worry about finding a superior food to match at this excellent price.
Hard pushed to find a NZ red at this price/quality ratio!
