First Creek’s Liz Jackson has created yet another gem, this time a vivacious 2014 Vermentino crafted from premium fruit grown in the Pokolbin sub-region of the Hunter Valley.
Bright pale lemon in the glass, this delicious Vermentino opens with a spicy nose of citrus, lemon zest, cracked wheat and light earth. A complex textural wine, the palate offers a good core of citrus and pear fruit, lovely nutty, spicy notes and leesy length. An excellent food wine served simply with grilled butterflied sardines with lemon and olive oil.
