FLYNNS WINES 2007 VERDELHO: "Get ready to be floored by a Heathcote Verdelho. What the?! Fragrant, fresh and aromatic. Flynns is built around the core of tight citrus fruit with tropical overtones. Partial barrel fermentation draws out a delightful mineral structure, and if you're not already completely bamboozled - it will age well!" Tyson Stelzer, WBM 100 November 2007 Edition
FLYNNS WINES 2007 VERDELHO: "Verdelho may just be the future..... it's refreshing to see such a high quality local example. Careful use of French oak has added some much needed complexity and some depth to the wine, already showing fresh tropical fruit and citrus" Bendigo Advertiser
Wine Maker Review:
"Wine Making: This wine was made from a small parcel of hand picked fruit. To increase the complexity and texture of this vibrant and driven wine, we fermented and aged the wine for a short time in new French oak barriques."
James Halliday Review:
"Has plenty of movement and impact thanks to the lemonyacidity surrounding the core of tropical fruit,a hint of oak too."
