Retasted 20/12/2002: A wine which displays spoiled fruit character. Bright deep straw colour already showing bottle developed character. Aroma of green tea, followed by a hint of tropical fruit. The palate flavours are delicate with spoiled fruit character evident which is carried into the aftertaste.
