Halliday Wine Companion 2017, August 2016 It has a bit of presence about it. It’s fruit-driven and accessible but its reach through the finish is uncommonly long, its notes of cool alpine herbs serving to refresh. The word ‘layered’ (used on the back label) is apt.

www.winefront.com.au November 2015 Quite a few MR SSB come though the door, and I reckon I get through more of them than some other styles. They’re not particularly taxing to taste. Light sweet grassiness over subtle tropical fruit and grapefruit, maybe a little vanilla. It’s gentle in the mouth, with an attractive chalky texture, crunchy gin and tonic with a squeeze of lime in the aftertaste. Goes very well. Good to drink. 91 or 92, or thereabouts.
