  Folks, the photo here is not the correct wine - it is the Black Label I have reviewed.
  Colour is light straw yellow, with moderate viscosity and a very fresh, citrus and floral nose.
  It is a lovely, beautifully balanced riesling that is starting to settle. Previous attempts were a little young and acidic, but this wine is now brimming with citrus, mineral, wildflower and pear flavours. There is good acid to make it mouth-cleansing and refreshing, with a long, dry finish. For its price, it is a bargain and is highly recommended. I have drunk a few cases of this wine over the last year and will happily drink more. Why drink Sav Blanc when this can be had for a low price?

  Didn't really enjoy this. Boring, fruit was average.
