2023 Liz Heidenreich Watervale Riesling

Brilliant water like core with greenish tinged edges. Jumping out of the glass are aromas of lime and lemon which are followed by some Granny Smith apple, wet steel, chalky talc and mineral notes. The tight and focused palate sees lemon and lime flavours sculpted by steely mineral infused acidity which provides a chiselled feel. Chalky elements linger underneath. Finishes very dry, taut and crisp with a flinty mineral laced aftertaste.
Cellar 6-8 years.
Alc. 12%

Other Reviews…..
This is an attractive riesling, good concentration, limey drive, faint flinty mineral characters, floral lift and a sense of precision and length. It offers up high refreshment factor with layers of flavour, texture and character. Good energy here, with great varietal and regional character. Geez, this ticks a lot of boxes, including value. Very well done. Drink by 2033.
