Not a great deal on the nose. Light, bright and easy. Not typical. Might appeal to sauvignon/verdejo fans.

Almost no smell. Very savoury, spicy and it seems southern. I might have thought it was marsanne/roussanne. Round.

Nice typewriter on label. Little fruit on the nose. Dry and acidic. Refreshing.

Ripe and exciting nose. Like baked apples. Bone dry and almost astringent. Grown up wine. Quite fascinating.
