"Bright straw-green; has the hallmark faintly funky bouquet, and the effortlessly silky, immaculately balanced, and long palate for which Giaconda is rightly revered. No one fruit flavour dominates, all drawn into the spell of the palate, as is the oak. It's perfectly possible to deconstruct a wine such as this, and equally easy to label that process sacrilege. Just revel in its harmony. 97 Points/Drink by 2033" - James Halliday
"Vibrant green and gold in colour. The aroma of gun flint and 'old Giaconda dirt', the good type that adds further dimension to white stone fruit aromas that are spiced with citrus rind aromatics. Brings back memories of the early 90s wines with the taste of granite and quartz bringing a minerality to the end palate. A sweet smell of complex decomposed granitic humus and clay provides a distinctive stamp to this Estate Vineyard wine." - Producer notes
