Description
"Lovely fragrance on the nose - stone fruit, ripe citrus, floral and a hint of honey, which lead to a juicy and lively palate with excellent fruit intensity, beautifully supported by whispering sweetness and well integrated acidity. The wine offers generosity as well as classic riesling refinement. At its best: now to 2018." Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, August 2014
“Bright, very pale straw colour with slight green hues, near colourless on rim. This has a light and delicate nose with subtle lime fruit lifted with esters, revealing mineral and herbal nuances, the aromatics pure and finely expressed. Dryish to taste, the palate is very tightly bound and elegant in proportion, with delicate fruit flavours of white florals and limes. The mouthfeel has suggestions of succulence and is enlivened by soft, background acidity, providing a mouthwatering flow. The wine flows to a soft-textured lingering finish with lime notes. This is an elegant and delicate, refreshing, dry Riesling with a soft floral fruitiness.” Raymond Chan Wine Reviews
Crisp apple and citrus lemon/lime aromas are the backbone for this off-dry Riesling. A crisp lingering finish enable this wine to be enjoyed now or cellared for the next 3 to 4 years.
Short and intense is the best way to describe the grape harvesting of 2013. The fine weather worked in our favour throughout the entire season, including during the critical flowering, ripening and harvest period. As the harvester moved from block to block there was no stopping, the weather was good; flavours were right and within a 3 week period all fruit was safely in the winery. Yields hit targets on all varieties rating the 2013 season up there with the best.

Nicely rounded European style riesling- avoids the strong limey acidity of many local vintages. Great value for money
