I like the price, moderate alcohol & some tasting notes, but don’t like the overpowering marzipan note on the nose & taste
Tasting Note: Deep yellow gold in colour with good acidity, a medium intense nose & a long length on the finish. Wine features lemon tart, banana, nectarine, coconut, butterscotch, vanilla & light oak spice
Negatives: Strong marzipan note on the nose & taste
Pairings: Drink now or over the next 2-3 years on its own or pair it with Escovitch.
