Brilliant straw colour with delicate green hue. The nose is more restrained than the Eden Valley Riesling of the same vintage. Lemon, tropical fruit and floral notes emerge. The palate on the other hand is fuller, with the lemon component being more dominant, followed by a hint of orange rind in the background. Excellent length. Clean acid finish. Long lime aftertaste.

Other Reviews...
Quite rich tropical / pineapple aromas; abundant, farily soft, fruit; ready now, though will hold.
