A delicious mature Clare Valley Riesling. Aromas of citrus peel with mandarin juice on the fleshy palate. No Kerosene. Mouth filling texture with low acid. Drinking at its peak but could go on until its 10th birthday without difficulty.

2015 vintage. Pale pale lemon in colour. Notes of lime juice. A slight guava nuance on the palate amidst the lime juice and searing acidity. A long future ahead. Very dry finish.

Tight and rough on opening. Much better on day two. I wish I had saved more. Margarita mix, lemon verbena, hint of some sweet fruit, and lots of acid. A bit linear.

Excellent Riesling starting to get a hint of kero to go with the musk and talc notes. Very pure. 2013 vintage.

Solid, classic Riesling - citrus abounds, refreshment ahoy.

Hot off the press - this 2014 vintage is fresh, Limey and slatey. Continuing the Love affair with King George Whiting on the Yorke Peninsula. A lovely Riesling with a 30 year pedigree, either young or 10 years old. 17+.
