P& P over 90 minutes Med Gold; nose of light grapefruit and other citrus but refined and later a hint of (oak) vanilla; palate is in balance with citrus but also some spice and sense of fruitier elements like semillion; very crisp but not too tart, acidity showing more influence here; palate cleansing; for me- not an NZ fan- the age / fruit balance is in a very nice place

As usual, this is such a fun wine. Varietal character is probably where it comes up short and usually a complaint of mine but not with this. The beautiful fruit and full clean mouth feel are good enough for me.

A lot of secondary notes. Still really enjoyable.

Continues to evolve nicely. Almond and salinity (subtle). Lemon and lime with a nice acidity. Medium finish. Really nice.
