The nose is marked, pleasant and intense. We perceive a dominant of sophisticated scents, white fruits, golden apple, flowers, hop and a slight hint of smokiness. The airing enhances these scents and reveals Williams pear and fresh mushroom. The nose perfectly captures the characteristics of the varietal fragrance. Flattering and understandable, it delivers a great pleasure.
The onset in the mouth is slender and the alcohol support full-bodied. The wine evolves on an incisive, sharp, saline, sparkling medium. We find the same aromas as on the nose, still dominated by golden apple, Williams pear, white flowers, hop, fresh mushroom and this smokiness. We perceive a hint of bitterness. The finish has a good length, 6-7 caudalies and a persistent and marked liveliness. The balance of this wine is focused on freshness. Tonic and precise, it offers a bright range of aromas based on the terroir.
Boccaccio Cellars offers real time shipping rates at checkout. These are heavily subsidised rates directly from Australia Post and will vary depending on your postcode.
Unfortunately, due to the ever increasing costs of postage we are unable to offer free shipping any longer. Postal increases have seen the average box of wine range from $30-$60, which can represent up to 500% of the cost of the average bottle of wine.
Your postal costs are calculated on the following factors:
- Where in Australia you are shipping to (Where rural postcodes obviously attract a higher charge)
- What in Australia you are shipping (Beer and water for example, are calculated in real time without any additional subsidy. This is because the margins for these products are minimal). Dry goods attract a discounted flat fee of $12 per carton (Calculated by gross weight).
Pickups on all items are encouraged.
