Phenomenal white. Perfect for spicy lite foods (Thai, Chinese, ceviche, etc)

This is the Mouvedre Rose. First time this was tasted (about 4 months ago) realized it was young. Second tasting in January 2016 showed the wine to be much improved. Will continue to improve with time, IMHO.

The 2014, all Mourvedre, is so pristine; spicy red fruit and rocky spiciness. Lovely, dry, and with a bit of food friendly tannin.

Another Plonk wine. This was to me a little more acidic than fruity.

As @Nora Grossman put it: "tastes like strawberries but not in a bad way!"

Had an amazing melon & cantaloupe nose - the flavor was unlike anything else I've ever had. Not sure I liked it...
