2009 Felton Road Riesling

Robe jaune pale verdâtre limpide.
Nez un peu fermé sur les arômes de citron vert+, zeste+, kiwi, savon+, poussière, fleur blanche et vanille.
Belle texture, ample mais souple, huileuse. Joli fruité typé NZ: kiwi+, citron++, ananas, pamplemousse). Sensation de sucrosité mais bien équilibré par l'acidité tranchante, salivante. Ca se sirote!

Pale greenish yellow color, clear.
The nose is a bit tight with aromas of lime+, zest+, soap, dust, white flowers and vanilla.
Nice smooth texture, a bit oily. Great fruit (very NZ): kiwi+, lemon++, pineapple, pink grapefruit). A little sweetness well balanced by the razor sharp but fine mouth-watering acidity. This wine makes you want to sip it!

Robe jaune verdâtre presque incolore.
Nez tel un parfum, c'est très floral (rose++) mais aussi fruité (pêche, lychee, melon Honeydew).
La texture en bouche est incroyablement douce (soie), huilé. On retrouve les arômes du nez qui s'ajoutent a une trame acide et amer (citron, pamplemousse rose, zest).
La finale est très longue mais un peu amer.

Very pale yellow-green almost color-free.
The nose is very perfume like with a big floral aspect (rose++), but also fruity (peach, lychee, honeydew melon).
On the palate, very smooth, silky and oily texture. The nose aromas add up to a bitter and acidic backbone (lemon, pink grapefruit, peels).
Lenghty finish although a bit bitter.

Robe jaune aux reflets verts.
Nez très floral (fleurs blanches+++) et fruité (zest d'agrumes+++, citron, abricot+). Notes de sirop d'orgeat et de feu de bois en arrière. Le lendemain, le nez a developpé des aromes de papaye++ et d'ananas++.
La bouche est grasse et soyeuse, tout en gardant une certaine fraicheur et une belle minéralité. Joli fruité (pamplemousse+++). Superbe amertume et notes fumées en finale. Délicieux.

Yellow green color.
Very floral (white flowers+++) and fruity (zest+++, lemon, apricot+) nose. Notes of orgeat syrup and wood fire on the back end. The next day, the nose have developed aromas of papaya++ and pineapple++.
Smooth texture on the palate with some weight, though it's fresh and mineral. Nice fruit (grapefruit+++). Great bitterness and smoky notes on the finish. Delicious wine.
