The colour was medium-bright pale greenish gold. The bouquet was crisp with citrus lime and tropical fruit. The taste had sharp crisp lemon fruit, with light oak balance. This wine had lighter body, and was quite a fruity style.

Note 1 I am not really a wine expert (just an enthusiastic amateur), so please don't take my recommendations as anything more than a rough guide to these wines. I can take no responsibility if you buy a lot, on my recommendation, and then regret it!

Note 2 You may not agree with my evaluation of these wines as a lot of this is quite subjective. I tend to put a lot of emphasis on complexity and intense characteristic flavours and bouquet, so if you disagree you might just have different priorities.
