From the remarkable organic Bassham Vineyards in Barmera, the heat of the Riverland brings the fun to this wine - and this rendition is still in fine form.  We've always adored this wine's luscious, waxy texture - although that can be said about all our Fiano's, but River Sand has always been the shining light in that regard. Beautiful wine this year - Lovely frangipani nose with some juicy pineapple, golden kiwi, apple whiffs too. That lovely almond kernel signature is all over this wine again, a kind of apricot, nectarine pip thing, all wrapped in that honeyed, oily texture. Showing some nice acidity to make it all refreshing - you could drink this all day. So pleasant. The Unico Team's Daily Drinker     photos taken at g.o.a.t long lunch house Part Time Lover
