Oldest NZ Riesling I've had perhaps, killer stiny bright petrol and Mandarin zest and wet chalkboard. Lovely.

Honey, white flowers, slight effervescence. One of the bottles we brought home from the 2015 NZ trip. Yummy.

My preferred balance for Riesling -- dry with a hint of sweetness for a rich balance.

Getting some pencil shavings and candle wax. Hubby smelling apricot but I'm not getting that. Very nicely balanced, some residual sugar (allowing it to age well), going nicely with goat cheese stuffed dates.

Very nice for the price, good balance, on the drier side and a good New Zealand showing.

Great interplay between the sugar and acid. Hints of rubber, mint and lime.
