Medium lemon. Intense petroleum, stone fruit on the nose. Classic riesling with strong petroleum scents on the nose. Medium plus body with a pleasant finish.

Wonderfully bright, fresh and sunny on the nose with notes of yellow apple, lime, iodine and crushed rock. Relatively ripe fruited but appealingly tangy with a slight nostril-stinging sensation. On the palate it has a good concentration and the entry is deceptively soft, but almost immediately after the majestic acidity emerges in a wide wave, carrying all the way to lingering, mouth-puckering finish. Similar to the nose the fruit on the palate is a bit on the ripe side but the wine stays positively dry and there is more than sufficient structure. Despite moderate 12.5% ABV this is a powerhouse of a wine and guaranteed to develop well in the cellar.
