First bottle out of the case and it was worth the wait. Very full on the palate with great lenght and power. Decanted it for 5-6 hours which helped it open up and it tastes even better after 24 hours. It really needs another few years to be at its best, so its going to be a keeper.

Rather too tannic and I am not sure it will ever really soften and develop. Got better with time, but not much.

How much better can Australian Riesling be? Great nose, firm palate and long finish. Such a good wine, but sadly my last bottle.
