Lovely, still youthful but just starting to develop aged characters. Tasted alongside the current vintage Hand Picked Eden Valley- these are my type of Riesling

sorry about this. please disregard my earlier review. I meant to review the handpicked and not the vine vale. The handpicked riesling 2009 is excellent. I haven't tried the Vine Vale.
Sorry about that.

I thought riesling and cork were anathema...but on this occasion the cork was excellent as was the wine. A nice light colour, nice zingy acid, citrusy flavour, length, lightness. I really liked it at cellar door 8 years ago but expected the cork to have done its worst. But instead it was fresh and vibrant but slightly mellowed...like a good aged riesling should be.
