NobleRottersSydney - Christmas Lunch 2016 (360 Bar & Dining, Sydney): {screwcap, 11.5%} Very toasty and developed for a ’15 I must say. Even has a splash of mid-yellow colour. Slightly developing aromas of chalk, talc, and lime, but quite reticent anyway. The palate is taut and controlled, with lime flavours, surprisingly gentle texture with acid not prominent, and even and low-key generally. Light body with a medium length finish. I was surprised; was expecting a bigger ‘bang’ from this. Time will probably help somewhat.

Very light and thin. Super tart, lots of lemon and lime. Short and disappears. Very forgettable and ultimately disappointing from a big name in Australian wine.

Light straw coloured with an almost floral aroma. Lemon and pear on the palate. Still years left.

White flowers, lime juice, mouth-watering minerality with a hint of chalk, fennel and developing roundness. 11.5% ABV. Purity.

Dried flowers, lime and slate on the nose. The palate is direct, intense and focussed. There's a touch of spice and it finishes long and dry.
