  November 27, 2020 - Pale lemon green in colour. Pronounced nose intensity with developing notes of hay, petrol, apple, lemon, grapefruit, lemon peel, lime. Dry, high acidity, medium alcohol and body. Pronounced flavour intensity and medium+ finish.

  October 30, 2020 - Day one: fantastic, effusive riesling nose but austere and fruitless on the palate. Day two: ah, here's the fruit. White nectarine, kaffir lime, gardenia, a little ginger and fresh basil. Bone dry. Best window probably 2022-2028.

  October 25, 2020 - Easy drinking, with a floral aroma. Fresh with good acidity to cleanse your palate. Minimal tannins with a light to medium body. Dry wine with Lemon. With a pleasant though brief follow through. An excellent wine for a lazy summer afternoon or evening. Screwcap and this acidity should keep it well preserved for years if not decades.

  October 17, 2020 - Very precise and clean wine, not super complex, but the overall feeling is very enjoyable. Lemon, and citrusy character, the nose shows just a simple but not broad wine, will age and get more on the complex and hydrocarbure side, the minerality and flintyness is not there, but will certainly with time. Light and clean palate, no power, but a sharp and refreshing finish, stays ! Lovely and easy to drink, Asian food wine for sure, with lots of herbs and aromatics, ... another very well made riesling from down under mates

  August 22, 2020 - Very light color. Of the various petrol-rubber descriptors you could apply to Riesling, this bottle is one of the closest to “tennis ball” that I’ve had, with the combination of rubber and felt. Some bright tart citrus, simple and light but good. Palate: searingly acidic and extremely dry but without any textural weight to balance it out; again, quite light, acidic but not zesty. So far this review sounds pretty negative, but this is a nice sip - clean, pretty, light, a little mineral, good varietal character, better with food. For the price it is good, reliable, tasty stuff, but it never blows me away. 12%, $15.
