Review Notes:

Willow's 2006 ‘Reserve’ displays a nose of jackfruit, sweet apple and honey.Coppery-colored and complex, acids are well integrated and balanced. A slight effervescence adds a ‘zip’ quality to the mouthfeel, and the overall profiles of cinnamon, melon, bitter lemon and pear carry into a rich wet stone finish.
