Feb 25th, 2017Holding on very well at 27 years of age. A surprising lack of kerosene one normally gets with old Rieslings. Good balance without any great depth of fruit flavour.

Feb 27th, 2016Excellent 10 year old Riesling from Eden Valley. Lemon color with floral notes and Kerosene. Label says it could be cellared for 20 years and with the residual acid and good fruit I have no reason to doubt it. Loved It.

Oct 31st, 2015Bright and fresh with long textural palate. Lime and floral aroma, pithy lime juice giving way to a bright and tight citrus core.
