  Kerosene, earthy, lime citrus...tangy, juicy tends to medium plus intensity acidity, it's a little more lime focussed on the palate, less kerosene, simple.
  Australian Riesling...possibly WA, defo mid 00's...2004 Leeuwin?

  Still light colour
  Still minerally/slate nose
  Maybe a little less fruit
  
  Have been drinking through the Rieslings I bought in 2005 and there really is limited development over 17 years. See similar in a lot of Shiraz but a 2001 RWT last week proved, not all.

  August 21, 2020 - Bracing acidity and turning a golden colour. Some secondaries on nose of keto etc, but plenty of lime and citrus still. Almost too austere.

  February 7, 2020 - Green flecked golden colour. Nose of lime, pear and bath salts suggest this may be a touch exotic? Pear and passion fruit added to the mix on the palate, all held in line by a steely spine of acidity. Drinking beautifully. No petrol as yet and when it comes will become a very rich Riesling. If that’s your preference keep under screw cap to 2025 plus.
  Day 2 and pine needle sap with bare traces of petrol. Needs food and will handle spice and heat well.

  December 30, 2019 - Excellent. At or near it’s peak. Steely acidity, citrus tones but with secondary age showing. Great value for money.
