To borrow a cliche, this wine was liquid gold.What an incredible balance of vivid acidity and unctuous sugar with 10% alcohol. This proved a fantastic match for stir-fried chinese mustard greens, bok-choy, grilled chicken, shrimp, garlic, sesame oil, ginger, soy sauce and hot pepper flakes with toasted macadamia nuts. It wasparticularly special with the macadamias. The predominant flavor to my palate from this complex bouquet was lychee. This was a case in which, the food was ok on its own, but the wine really made it rock.
