I don't normally drink white wine as I often find it too acidic but this was very very palatable and smooth and was perfect with the Christmas meal.

Excellent wine

This is a real favourite for me. Full of intense flavour very clean and lovely with fish chicken etc. Maybe to strong as a stand alone drink. A real treat, have bought this on many occasion and it never fails to delight.
