  Screwcap, 11.5% alc. From the Barrett’s Vineyard at Portland. Lemon yellow-gold.
  Lovely aromatics, with creamy peach, orange, buttered toast, graphite, grapefruit, and apple.
  Delicate entry on the palate, and then the fruit gets laid on. And what carry; the length is brilliant, and a real highlight of this wine. Showing a hint of R.S. yet the soft acidic backbone is the lasting memory.
  
  Opinion: Excellent, and delicious, lip smacking, Riesling. Worth the praise it received on release. Looked even better and Germanic after a few days. Wonderful drinking now and over the next couple of decades. Wow!

  {screwcap, 11.5%} Middling yellow, still with a green aspect. Beautifully developing nose of lime, apricot, kabinett-like apples, with cinnamon/musk. The palate is gorgeous, the medium acidity offsetting the ~10g/l of RS, without it ever really getting to off-dry. Lovely parade of flavours per the nose, with an even, medium-weight palate and a long finish. More sybaritic than cerebral, but wonderful to wallow in. Super stuff, showing no sign of falling over but wonderfully balanced now.

  I thought this was Geelong fruit but in fact the Barrat vineyard in Portland (so a very nice little bonus). Very clearly fruit of some quality, plenty of weight with sinewy citrus and some early showing of kero. Will get better but I expect the primary fruit to fall away shortly.

  Delightful Riesling very much cut from the Teutonic cloth. Nose of lime, bath salts and green apple. Slight florals. Very much on the dry side of off-dry with mouthwatering acidity. Very clean and very refreshing. Long life ahead of it.

  Pale yellow in colour, the slightest hint of kerosene and lime on the nose, the front palate lacks a little fruit , however the searing acidity, fruit and high residual sugar returns in the back palate with a sherbet like finish. Wine will flourish with a few more years in the bottle
