As I remembered, still a bit of sharp elbows on this one. It was so sharp that I looked up the production notes last time and recall a finished ph of 2.9! This may have lasted until one's grandchildren were ready to drink it, but it was a refreshing match with grilled chicken at the beach. Pale yellow. Nose of reductive, flinty soil and lime zest, citrus blossom. Palate is medium bodied, very high acid, medium low alcohol, a bit unbalanced toward acid.

Petrichor on the nose. Angular citrus. Under stone fruit: nectarine, white peach. Light garden hose. Apple. Clean and refined with a medium to medium- body. Medium to medium+ acidity. Surprisingly long finish.

Very pale lemon. Citrus and talc notes. Very lean palate with plenty of acid. Give it a few more years. This is a good area for Riesling. Previous Alkoomi Rizzas have been more Germanic with more mid palate sweetness and lower alcohol.

Hot off the press - the 2014 vintage. Previous vintages 10+ years ago were a little Germanic in style with some residual sweetness from memory. This, however is tart and austere and a little too acidic for me. Chalky and lime juice notes. Badly needs food. 16-
