The palate shows excellent fruit intensity and vibrancy, beautifully supported by juicy mouthfeel and fine texture, finishing long and mouth-watering. Very likable and expressive.

Description
"91pts... Very likable and expressive"
"It is beautifully ripe and inviting on the nose displaying stone fruit, mandarin, lime zest and floral characters. The palate shows excellent fruit intensity and vibrancy, beautifully supported by juicy mouthfeel and fine texture, finishing long and mouth-watering. Very likable and expressive. At its best: now to 2020" Sam Kim Wine Orbit
Quite a soft and board style with apricot, mango and a hint of honey. Smoothly textured and ripe with good balance of sweetness and acidity.
This Riesling is best enjoyed with a wide range of dishes including shrimp, scallops, mussels, clams, fish and chicken. Add spice to the dish and it will pair perfectly with the slightly offdry finish.
Fruit hand harvested, whole bunch pressed and gently extracted free run portion separated. Resultant juices were cold settling for 2-3 days before racking to ferment which was completed in stainless steel tanks at cool temperatures. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was left on fermentation lees for 16 weeks to add texture.

Well worth sampling and not too sweet as rieslings can be.

Fresh and with lovely citrus fruit. Great 'mystery' purchase.

Personal preference is a sweet Riesling, this is a less sweet one, but still quite nice

Seems good drinking already, but the write up was a bit over the top. Does not have the acid they talk about. It's a light ready now Riesling that's all.
