Pear and mandarin
Very mineral
Slightly warm even though it has a low alcohol content
No huge flaws, but it isn't long at all
Still up and running, but I am not deeply interested about where it is heading

Medium bodied with zesty citrus and underripe stone fruit. Crisp, clean, and petrol-y.

Weekly Wine Committee. 1 sparkler, 3-4 whites, 3-4 reds and 1 dessert wine format. Served blind.

I called this a Riesling, but I thought it was Alsatian due to the lack of sweetness as well as the notes of petrol. Over time, the petrol notes just dominated. Slate, limestone, underripe pear and zippy acidity.

Some nice aged characters developing - a bit of "kero" with plenty of fruit still there

Pale greeny gold, lemon sherbet, very dry, taut acidity, flowery lemon peel with herby undertones, long.
From a cooler climate, higher altitude (490 metres) region in South Australia.

Very nice Australian Riesling. Not overpowering in sweetness, but a good amount of crisp nectarine.
