Aromas of lime, smoke, and rubber. Textured with high acidity and well-balanced sugar. Flavors of bitter lime, grapefruit pith, and basil are dominant and the bitter and acid marry harmoniously into a very very long and pleasing finish. Beautiful Australian riesling.

Check-up on Australia with Tim Wildman, MW (Adelaide/Barossa): Medium light yellow. Nose of orange, citrus, gummy bear with a hint of tangerine. On the palate much sweeter and richer (medium bodied) than the first Riesling of the flight. This is more Alsace than Mosel in style.

I'm being completely unfair but I find the style hard to take seriously. Clean, well made and completely true to the intended style. Citrus fruits hide before the sweetness but there's plenty of acid to balance out. Just proves why cold climate sites are so important to the style. Zingy finish. Massively easily to drink at a fast pace.

rubber, hops, sweet apples and a little funk. Quite Alsatian.

Luna with Attila and co.: Quick taste - spice, citrus and pear. Quite sweet on the palate, the acidity isn't quite there to carry it.
