Oxidative (intentional), bruised apple, nuttiness. It's Riesling Jim, but not as we know it.

Texture is the first thing that comes to mind. Sherbet, lemon pith, quince and a touch of the exotic.

Not your standard Riesling. Much more acidic and not as sweet (thankfully). Muscat and banana on the nose. Some tropical fruit (pineapple) and lemon on the palate.

White stone-fruit flesh and bruised Apple perfumed nose, peach skin astringency with delicate sourness on finish. Very crisp and clean finish.

Funk of the year! A riesling, pinot gris, chardonnay blend from Tasmania. Unfiltered, natural fermentation, minimum sulphur. On the nose: musky, sweaty fruits, cara cara navel, blood orange, slightly nutty, whiff of talcum powder. Palate: dry, fine fine tannins, slight creaminess, cool mouthfeel, similar notes as the nose but it hits first with lime - courtesy of the high acid, spiced fruit finish.

This was a 750 that was really a 1500. If you blinded me on this, I never would have said Riesling. Only the slightest hint of petrol on the nose, but otherwise came off as a savennieres or older Chenin.
