First Tasted, August 2007:
A superb Riesling inspired by the Spatlese wines of Germany. Brilliant water like colour with water like hue. Top note of lime, followed by tropical fruit and ripe mandarin – delivering a perfumed sniff. On the palate flavours of ripe pineapple, mango, spice and lychee over a background of ripe mandarin and lemon. Clean acid finish. Aftertaste of ripe mandarin and lime.
