Wine Enthusiast
Reviewed November 2020Green-apple vividness appears first on the fruity nose of this wine. This is followed by mellower notes of ripe peach and Mirabelle that fill the palate with juiciness. Rich and smooth, the wine is edged with zestiness to remain on the refreshing side of ripeness. It brims with concentration and dryness. (AK)

Rich and creamy at the front, this has some attractive, exotic, floral notes, plus hints of mangosteen and star fruit. Quite a sleek, mineral finish that’s almost austere. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

Vinous
Straw-yellow. Oatmeal and cookies plus apple and apricot on the nose and palate. Very long and fruity on the finish, featuring sharp acidity and hints of orange peel. The very linear, delicately spicy finish is typical of the granite in the soil. (ID)

This super-solid and delicious Riesling has a classic nose of tart apple, honey, petrol and stone fruits. On the palate, it is dry with pineapple, honey and white peaches. Dry, dry, dry and super solid!
