The wine was a translucent ruby colour. On the nose it was delicate , with cedar overtones. Palate well balanced, medium bodied, elegant, with a long finish. Drink in 2013. Went with lamb backstrap.

Well made wine, nose muted but as expected for riesling. Palate, however, is dominated by very high acid. OK if this is what you are expecting. Give this wine about 4 more years before trying again.
