2016 Duke's Invitation Riesling

Made by Snake & Herring winemaker Tony Davis this Riesling has spent extra time on yeast lees to add both texture and weight. Brilliant water like colour with a distinctive tinge of green around the outskirts. On the nose lime and citrus aromas abound intermingling with a twist of orange and granny smith apple followed by some light talc and mineral end notes. Possessing excellent intensity, mouthfilling lime, citrus and orange flavours dominate over steely characters and flinty mineral. Dry, lean finish with fresh crunchy acidity. Excellent length with a long aftertaste of lime, citrus, orange rind, wet steel and flinty mineral. The wines superb concentration and acid structure ensures a long life.
