A wine I forgot I had and boy do I wish I'd tried this earlier. It's a belter!

Golden in colour, the nose is fabulous. Honey dew melon, honey suckle and...well honey. It did worry me slightly though as thought it might be a bit sweet.

I needn't have worried. It's full, rich and complex with a dry finish. There's lemon, apple and melon in there with a some gentle minerals.

Excellent wine that goes well with shell fish.

A zingy little number this one.
Pleasantly surprised as it is not to my normal taste. Mrs H enjoyed it too.
Refreshingly different or differently refreshing either way would I buy again, yes.

I've got too agree with you Mark very dissapointed.

Slightly fizzy in the glass, and a touch acidic for me. Tasted cheap. I was really looking forward to this one - particularly after some of the reviews - and it came nowhere near the mark. The most disappointing I've had from NW by a way.

Just opened this. My first thought was, "smells like cheap Italian white" but then I tasted it. Oh my! It's complex and delicious! And cheap as chips. Recommended.
