Riesling in a second stage, lots of burnt rubber and petrol on the nose, but not disturbing the enjoyment. Good mouth, with fruit and freshness plus the evolution found before. Quite long. Not expansive at all. 👍

Brilliant example of Clare Riesling with lime & quince on the complex palate, all balanced by crisp acidity. Great potential longevity.

Floral, blossom, tangy lime, a little tropicals; great line and acid.

Beautiful floral and kaffir lime aromatics; fine palate and hallmark length expected from producer/variety/region.

Pale green-yellow. Strong smell of slate and lemon, followed by a distinguished palate with the same accents. Light/medium body with good persistence and purity. A really good effort. Only thing stopping it from pushing higher is perhaps that it is a bit linear. Nice wine at a reasonable price point.

Tennis balls, almonds and pears, then limes limes limes, sherbert and honeysuckle in your mouth. Good acid edge, crisp close to petillance. Refreshing, keep for another 2-3 easily.
