Jenny Dobson Hawke's Bay Fiano (2017)

Well worth discovering, the 2017 vintage (5*) is from vines in the Bridge Pa Triangle that were previously allocated to the Bushhawk Vineyard label. Fermented and lees-aged in stainless steel tanks and barrels, it's a distinctive wine with satisfying body, concentrated, peachy, slightly spicy flavours, and a long, dry, finely balanced finish.
