The Australian wine industry does rather well in honouring its matriarchs, this named after Christobel Hill-Smith, the wife of former Managing Director Sidney Hill-Smith, who sadly perished in a plane crash in 1938.
Smells fresh, crushed candies - as Moscato often does to me - hints of peachy stonefruit.
The sweetness (50g/l) gives a little palate cleanse - an amuse bouche of the wine world if you like - stonefruit, a lick of citrus and cut of acid.
Can't fault it really, even if stylistically it's not to my personal taste. 86
