The nose is clean. The aromas have a medium intensity and show notes of autolytic characters (bread, cheese rind) and mineral (oil). The wine appears youthful.
On the palate, the wine is dry with medium acidity, medium alcohol, and light body. The flavours have a medium intensity and show notes of autolytic characters (cheese rind) and green fruit (red apple). The finish has a medium(+) length.
This is a good quality wine. The fruit is concentrated and has a good balance with the alcohol and the acidity. In its current state, the secondary characteristics dominate the wine, particularly the cheese rind note. The finish was enjoyable (with the red apple note) and had a great length.

Canberra International Riesling Challenge (Albert Hall, Canberra): The appearance is clear and pale lemon in colour. Tears are visible.

19th Canberra International Riesling Challenge (Albert Hall, Canberra): Apple over a little pear skin, sweet spice. Juicy, long and tight but young. Balance of acid and fruit is nicely handled Good.
