The bottle is stupidly heavy but there is a nice cool feel to the taste. It’s to do with the vineyard’s proximity to the ocean which brings out acidity to balance the delicious ripe pear and sweet melon fruit. It is ripe and lightly toasty. The aftertaste adds a mineral texture to the complex mix. Drink now.
