Subdued nose – touch of VA? Broad palate, a touch sweet/sour for me, lemon curd and green apple fruits in the mix. Finish shows a streak of phenolic bitterness that some at the tasting liked, but not me.

Quite fruity and intense, and takes time to pin down - green underipe pear, underipe lychee (plus stone for M), musky white powdery floral. Honeydew (near the skin), gardenia, nashi pear, green mango, great intensity, suffers a little for being quite round and fairly full for an Aussie Riesling - perhaps a touch too much r.s. or lack of acidity, but the acidity that's there is nice - salivating. Quite different from the traditional Aussie Riesling - far more fruity, with good intensity/richness. Nice!

Seems a little sickly on this occasion - too sweet. But perhaps just not the right food

Nice mineral acids and citrus flavours. Leaves you wanting more. Slightly sweet rather than bone dry style of reisling - a great nice taste

Melon, pear, minerals, r.s. and good acidity. As per last time. Really needs the right food though
