2012; Mother's Day 2022.

Lots of petrol and new rubber on the nose, low acidity on the gentle palate. 5H double-decant, questioning if there is future improvement here...

800 cases made. Pale yellow white, very good clarity. Intense floral nose. Crisp, floral citrus flavors, fruity but dry finish with lemon peel and grapefruit pith flavors. Mild fine grained skin astringency. Possibly some lees contact character in finish but it’s at threshold level for me.

Pale yellow. Perfumed floral note in nose. Dry, lightly tart Riesling, creamy and slightly astringent finish. Solid for varietal character

Petrol on already wet limestone, short finish, acidity shows lightly up once warmed.
