From the winery:
The palate is elegant, with juicy mandarin, earthy cumin, sweet basil and ripe yellow star fruit (carambola). Layered and textured, the wine is clean and fresh with flavours of ripe pineapple and a mild tannin note sitting over a layer of umami. Vegan Friendly.
93 points from the Wine Enthusiast:
The second vintage of this experimental wine from Kim and Erica Crawford, which supplements green-tea tannin extract for sulfur, is as delicious and outside the box as the first. A pale-gold hue, it's rich and honeyed with up-front notes of butterscotch, grilled pineapple, fresh wild herbs and, yes, green tea, although it's less prominent this vintage. The palate is dry—more than the nose might suggest. It's textural and weightier than your typical Marlborough SB. There's a lovely crunch of tangy acidity and a skinsy grip to the finish.
