A dry riesling, giving off scents of lemon, grapefruit, passionfruit and a hint of apple. The wine is racy with good structure and intensity, but there is a pithy element on the palate I don't enjoy. I feel this is a riesling that will benefit from another 5 or 6 years of bottle age. 12.5%.

In a bit of an in between place at the moment. Still nice but turning from a young fresh riesling into something else. Not sure what that something else is but it seems promising.

Midweek at SPN: Toast, quince and spice. Nice spark to the palate, with the mid palate lifted by very good acidity. Nice length.

Australian Wine Unearthed Public Tasting (Sydney, Australia): Pear, toast, lemon and spice. Mid length, still really youthful and crisp. Builds slowly. Very good.

Beautifully balanced. Fresh zingy acidity, nicely minerally, subtle citrus flavours but dry. Awesome with some spicy prawns.

Very very nice. Notes of lemon with a zippy minerally acidity. Lovely now - will be amazing in another few years. Might try my next one in about 2011.
