Lovely steely acidic personality. Now down to two btls, hoping I can keep them hidden… Penfold's wines are famous for ageing well. If this holds true also for this wine, I'm looking forward to being blessed.

The initial sip might strike one as overly acidic, but as the evening progresses, the intricate nuances of this impeccably pure Riesling unfurl. Blind tasting would defy any guess that it originates from Australia. Its razor-sharp precision promises significant aging potential. For the first time, I've secured more than two bottles, with the hope that at least a pair can be cellared for a minimum of five years.

Steely acidity, melting my teeth and making me smile. The transparent build allows for a very sensitive minerality to shine through. Simply beautiful!
Similar build to a very good Muscadet.
