One of the most wonderful tastes to experience- mature riesling; this is a 24yo, colour looking brassy but taste astonishing; palate power a mix of spice- brulee- lime-sour citrus; racy acids, 11.5% alc; #sa #edenvalley #leoburing #leonay #riesling #aussiewine #smart ; leonay is the name of the original Barossa Valley which pioneer wine merchant Leo Buring (died in 50s) established. — 8 years ago

Rarely taste Eden Valley SA riesling; more Clare; this different style from Clare; a long backbone on the palate; ageing window said 5-10 years, about right #1996 #riesling #SA #11.5% #elegant #kerostyle — 10 years ago

Longview Nebbiolo 2012 #adelaidehills ; not as fearsome as the label; Aussie style neb with the fruitiness followed by the reamy tannins; excellent ripeness and length; only touch savoury; fruit rather than complex flavour range; 14.5%; by two New York Italians AUD 45 fair; better than the chewy green Langhes for the same money from 2013! Ouch. #longview #drinklocal #drinkitaly #drinkalternative #sa #saturnobros #italian — 9 years ago
