Classic Clare nose - touch of honey, lanolin, fennel seed, citrus and a floral note. In the mouth, bright yet suave acidity, slightly weak mid-palate but the wine has focus and good length. Will age well - it is bound to honey up and display some petrol notes before too long. Great value.

Closed on the nose to begin with, it opened after some time in the glass into floral notes, jasmine, lemon blossom, lemon sorbet & pink grapefruit. The palate was very focused and linear in its acid structure, good balance and hints of fruit sweetness. Flavours hit the lemony spectrum and a touch herby. Nice.

Solid and delicious Clare valley riesling. Drinking very well, displaying well constructed balance. A commercial wine, but has some class about it.

Pristine aromas of lemon peel, lemon sherbet, and lime. Pure as anything. The palate is the same- linear with chalky acidity.
