  Drinking really well now. The disparate parts of the wine have all melded together to create a complex, tasty riesling. The fruit was in the stone fruit realm, with some pineapple thrown in. Not a huge amount of acidity, but the fusion of fruit and acid was still very nice. Fairly rich, with a long off dry to sweet finish (A-).

  Disappointing from this producer. Lacks appropriate acidity, leaving it flabby and borderline cloying. Nice nose but palate fails to deliver on the promise.

  clear, medium minus yellowish green colour.
  
  Clean nose with medium plus intensity. Developing with nose of petrol, citrus especially lime, floral notes, stone/rocks, some green fruit like apple and some ripe citrus fruits like papaya.
  
  medium dry with medium plus acidity, medium minus alcohol, medium minus body and medium plus flavour intensity. Wine characterized by it's minerality, citrus, green apple and slightly peachy notes, floral and some warm climate tropical fruit.
  
  Very Good wine, has great complexity. Can drink now but could also hold for a couple years.
