Community Tasting Notes 7

  January 23, 2020 - On the nose tons of petrol, also white flowers, honey, lemon curd, green apple skin, wet stones and over-ripe apricot. On the palate more floral honey, stone fruits and stone but also gentle spice, soft lime and pear. It has juicy, juicy acidity, a generous length and a bit of residual sugar. I’d say this wine is just hitting its stride and has many years to go.

  July 9, 2019 - Mixed white orchard fruit, floral notes and lots of petrol on the nose. Medium bodied (7.5% ABV) with white apple and pear upfront, mixed with a bit of apricot. Mid-body has good depth, bringing in softer peach, golden apple and some background tropical hints. Tart lemon and lime on the backside, combined with very good acidity for a ten year old riesling. It still retains an amount of youthful vibrancy to these tart qualities that works very well with the depth of the fruit. The fruit through the middle is holding together quite well and as long as the acidity remains in as good a spot as it is today, there's no reason this wine can't continue for many more years to come.

  April 2, 2015 - Massive nose of petrol followed by pear and white flowers. Spicy in the mouth, with tart apple and limestone. A touch more acid would be swell but this is nonetheless killer Riesling.

  June 8, 2014 - Very light yellow. Lemon, lime and mango nose, very pleasing. The wine is light on its feet but offers surprisingly intense flavours and great balance between sweetness and acidity and nice mineral note. Moderately long finish. Still getting better.

  December 15, 2012 - Rather sweet Riesling, unexceptional but fine with fruit and dessert
