Judges Comments<br />

A rather eclectic mix of flavours spreading from<br />

pineapples, spiced nuts, lemon tart and honey. The<br />

palate remains fresh throughout due to a clever link<br />

between the acidity and residual sweetness. Undeniably<br />

a technically well made wine that has a lot of thoughts<br />

put into creating a balanced and easy drinkable wine.<br />

Judges Comments<br />

An unorthodox sparkling wine with blood orange color<br />

lines the glass. The mandarin peel and herbaceous<br />

tones add an interesting layer of fun behind a well<br />

made wine that carries some sweetness on the palate.<br />

Balanced and has a good drinkabilty factor.<br />
