Got little on the nose, but good fruit, very smooth and fair length. When I first got into wine over 90% of what I drank was from Oz and I drink little now, but this may get me looking more at this part of the world. Enjoyed it a lot and bought back very happy memories of a visit to the estate, Margaret River and Oz in 2003 to see England win the rugby World Cup.

A good riesling nose which hints that there might be some sweetness, although on the palate there isn’t. Considerable amount of fruit and depth, with a long finish. There’s a good amount of acididty that keeps me wanting more. Cracking riesling, which on Saturday was overwhelmed by some Thai fishcakes, but was much better on its own on Sunday.
