Thornbury is a brand developed by winemaker Steve Bird, then later acquired by Villa Maria’s George Fistonich. This is an intensely aromatic wine, with scents of passion fruit, lime and bell pepper that burst from the glass. On the palate, it’s crisp and medium-bodied, with hints of peach to balance the bit of capsicum. Lively and tangy on the finish.——W.E.(7/1/2007)—— 88
