2017 Bream Creek Riesling

Made from vines over 40 years old. Brilliant very pale straw colour with a slight greenish tinge to the edges and a watery hue. Fresh lime and red apple aromas meld into mandarin and subtle honeysuckle with slatey mineral end notes. Intense flavours of ripe lime, red apple and mandarin are intermeshed with honeysuckle and traces of mineral. Finishes dry with crisp acidity and a long salivating aftertaste.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
Alc. 13.2%

Other Reviews…
Glinting straw-green; the balance between the high acidity (8.2g/l) and residual sugar (8.2g/l) has been judged with unusual skill, allowing the Rose's lime juice flavours free play, and none of the screeching acidity in some Tasmanian rieslings The similarity with its '16 sibling is a tribute to the vineyard and Fred Peacock's assured touch. Drink by 2027.
