Tasting Note: Complexity of aromas includes crushed lime, mandarin, aniseed and spice, this medium-dry style has a ripe fruit sweetness which is balanced by a bright citrus acidity. Olly Masters (Winemaker)
Wine Orbit Sam Kim 96 Points Pristine with brilliant clarity and purity, the wine shows Gala apple, lime cordial and jasmine aromas on the nose with a hint of spicy overtone. The concentrated palate delivers finesse and elegant texture, wonderfully complemented by subtle sweetness and racy acidity, leading to a sustained structured finish. Style: Medium-dry. At its best: 2024 to 2034.
CamDouglasMS.com Cam Douglas 94 Points Pristine, ripe and pure fruited bouquet with initial aromas of apple and pear then as the wine opens out in glass scents of lime-flower and apricot stone begin to emerge. Floral, youthful and new. An off-dry wine touches the palate with a residual sweetness, contrasting acidity then engages the senses carrying flavours of fresh citrus and apple flesh, white flowers and a core of stony minerality. Youthful, taut and refreshing with a lengthy finish. Well made and ready from drinking from day of purchase through 2035.
Food Match: This style of Riesling is very versatile matching most types of seafood especially shellfish. It’s great with chicken, duck and pork dishes with either creamy or piquant sauces and an ideal wine to serve as an apéritif and with appetisers such as paté, cold meats, salads and mild cheeses. It’s also perfect with Pad Thai!
