Very zesty and fresh style of wine, it is not tropical at all, it must have been picked very early as the main character is lime in both nose and taste supported by green apples and hint of herby character in the nose. Although this should be the export range I found the wine in au web showing the price of 16 AUD, hence it is cheaper to buy it here like many Australien wines due to overproduction in homeland:-) I personally prefer their standard non export range such as the Verdelho tasted in April 2013.
