Not what I would expected for a Riesling. More effervescent and Sauv Blanc like. Served with an Apple Bread Pudding. Which worked.

More petrol than a BP station. More beeswax than a hive.

Crisp Granny Smith, tart lemon, slight yeast on finish. Hints of petrol and mouthwatering acidity. Great wine that will age.

2007 vintage
"Lime, peach, melon, and lemon jump from the glass, as well as subtle petrol notes and a hint of salinity. Dry and crisp on the palate, with racy acidity." Refreshing.
