Description

Brilliant, pale green in the glass. Showing restrained & delicate aromas of lime/lemon, citrus blossom and bath powder, along with some subtle wet slate characters on the nose. This is a very clean and attractive wine that displays the clarity and purity of an exceptional vintage. Fresh, crisp and quite delicate, the palate is loaded with attractive citrus characters. The lively acid provides much of the drive and sees the wine finish clean and dry with just a hint of talc like grip on the finish. It is just delicious!

This is the 33rd release of our most important wine. The “Trad” always makes a terrific drink upon release, but 5 -7 years in the cellar will amply reward those who like their Rieslings with some bottle development.

Food Pairing: Drink with any seafood or white meat (of course), but it does work admirably with gruyere cheese too.
