Last of the 2008s. Wish I had more. Drinking beautifully at 7 years of age. Pale gold in color with pronounced honey notes which carry thru to the palate with a cleansing acid finish. Only 9.5% alcohol - Yalumbas take on a German Kabinett style without the minerality of the latter. Most tasters would pick this as German if tasted blind. No Kero notes. Must buy more of latest vintage.

2010 vintage - tasted along side the standard offering from Pewsey Vale - this one has higher residual sugar, though still remains very Australian in character - on balance I prefer the lower RS style, but this is still a lovely drink on its own or with Asian/spicy foods

A delicious off-dry Riesling. Could drink it all day long. Very fruity with lovely flavours of green apple. Well balanced with acidity and sweetness. Lovely with Asian food, particularly anything with chilli.
