Had this at a trade tasting last week and been meaning to post it! It has just a smidge of sweet to it but also sings of freshness and delight. Different than most Australian Rieslings I’ve had—in that it tasted indelibly like Riesling. Which is not shade against their Rieslings so much as it is shade on me for always failing to identify them in tests. Anyway, adored this wine. Would guzzle again.

Estate situated in the quaint Polish Hill sub region of South Australia’s Clare Valley. Brothers Andrew & Neil Pike established Pikes in 1984 and continue to manage today. Pale lemon with pronounced aromas of citrus & stone fruits adding floral notes. On the palate flavors of lemon/lime, peach & pineapple with honey and toasty biscuit notes. Medium+ finish ending with wet stone character. Very Good, some bottle age will benefit.
