2005 Pettavel Late Harvest Riesling (375ml)

A luscious lemon & honeycomb filled sticky made by Peter Flewellyn. An excellent example of cool climate, late harvest Riesling which has been fermented in 4 year old French oak in order to give the wine additional layers of complexity. Brilliant gold colour with pale gold hue. Aroma of honey and lemon followed by a spice and honeycomb end note. Rich, luscious palate with flavours of lemon, honeycomb and ripe tropical fruit. Clean acid finish, followed by a long lemon, honeycomb and honey aftertaste.
Cellar 1-2 years (2007-2008)
Alc/Vol: 10.5%

Other Reviews...
A complex and incredibly luscious and rich palate with spice and cumquat, but really needs a little more acidity to balance that luscious sweetness.
