The wine looks like one I shall enjoy and boast of once having consumed it.I intend sharing this splendid red with our son over Christmas - happy to furnish you with a tasting review then and , hopefully, purchase a few more bottles.
Took a punt on the 2011 Kairos Sauvignon Blanc & was pleasantly surprised at the drinkability of aged Sauv, I do not usually drink Sauvignon Blanc's but after drinking the Kairos I will drink more.
A little bit of pungency evident upon opening and best to let it breath for 30 minutes or so and the pungency dissipated and then the wine started to show its best - good fruit, vanilla/oak, balance and elegance!
