Knappstein
Ackland Vineyard Watervale Riesling
Clare Valley, Mount Lofty Ranges, South Australia, Australia
Star bright yellow gold. Inviting nose of green apple and citrus rind. Medium palate echoes the nose bolstered by firm acidity and adding layers of dried fruit, cement, and white pepper. Remarkably long finish continues the palate. Wonderful example of the citrusy Aussie style of Riesling. Excellent with any "white wine" fare, but pork or seafood dishes are particularly good. Drink now through 2036.

Exceptional colour with a burst of subtles fruit flavours. My 1st 10 year Riesling. Lemon and lime on the palate - good long linger - even a little buttery
