Another vintage ideal for Riesling, heavy winter rain kept moisture in the ground well into January. The vines required little additional water resulting in high natural acid.
A blend between vineyards in Sevenhill and Penwortham.
Aroma – A perfumed aroma of blossoms, citrus and peach.
Palate – Strong citrus characters of lime and lemon with riper peach and pears. A full mid palate and great mineral finish and lifted by natural acid gives a generous drinking Riesling. Strong lime and lemon flavours to start and a full mid palate with a great mineral and soft acid finish.
Sit in some clover (3 leaf) and sip with canapes while socialising pre dinner. Continue drinking with your favourite seafood or chicken.
