A wee BP:
1. This was gifted to me at dinner last Sat by PeterRosback/winemaker/owner. In the springtime, he goes down for crush in NZ to make this SB, imports it & btls it under his own label. I find NZ SB's a bit one-dimensional and many have a sameness to them. This had classic NZ SB character, but had a rich/lush and ratherr spicy character that I don't usually find in those wines. Think the wine sells for about $18.00
