  Definitely has entered into its drinking window, albeit early. Beautiful yellow-green colour although not as bright as I would have expected. Lime and lemon with a hint of pineapple. Supple mouthfeel and still quite fresh indicating good acidity to support the wine. Compared to Grosset, Pikes The Merle and The Florita from Jim Barry, it may not have the depth or the complexity of these wines. Still, it is utterly charming, graceful and a beautiful drop.
  
  Drink now or 5+ years.

  Screwcap, 12.5% alc. Pale gold.
  
  A mix of tropical and citrus on the nose, with waxy lemon and lime, peach, redcurrant, lanolin, toast, light kero, and a hint of mandarin peel
  
  Palate-filling sour-edged flavour, appropriate acidity, finishing reasonably long though with a browned lime dullness.
  
  Opinion: One of the better Petaluma Rieslings since 2002. Drink on day 1, as it falls away by day 4.

  Lime juice and lemon pith, held together with still piercing acidity. Screw cap is the winner here.
