What the Experts Say
Bob is a great name for wine. Almost as good as Brian.
Smells like floral perfume, almost synthetic in a way, curious start, but there you have it. Flavours are more green melon, some cucumber in tonic water, sour-sweet, sherbetty finish says something different to everything. Disjointed wine, all up. Ok drink.
86/100 - Mike Bennie, The Wine Front
Our Notes
Soft free run, skin contact, barrel ferment, full solids, no fining and no additives: to read the label on this evidently self-sufficient “Bob” Fiano suggests that the folks at M&R just left a heap of grapes around to see what’d happen.
Not the case, of course, but the trust in nature paid off with a waxily textural midweight white wine showing a combination of not-quite-citrus fruit with some Demerara and baking spice that brings to mind sweet persimmon, maybe. Cute hint of secondhand bookshop to the nose.
