  Rieslingfest 2024 (Prince Sydney, 40 Hansard Street): Kerosene and lime, slight honey, more kerosene on the palate. Ugh

  Final bottle. Nice but no fireworks. Seems to be in a bit of a dip/slump, given previous bottles.

  Riesling with finesse. Very delicate citrus notes, granny smith apple and thin viscosity. Tastes extremely young and fresh. Some stone fruit and lots of acidity. Lay vertical for another 5-10 years!

  11.3% ABV
  
  Screwcap
  
  Probably a little more developed then I was expecting also... Drinking exceptionaly well however, Florita is quite apt, there's a lovely very subtle rose/violet sweetness in the background to match the Apple, lemon mineral and slight richness starting to develop...
  
  Splendid!!

  Tasted again, not blind this time. Showing a little more development that I would have expected - Granny Smith apple now quite prominent. Underlying acid is still tight, adding freshness and length. Delicious.
