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.

From John at MAC B. Another decent bone dry Riesling. A bit sweeter.

Lemon meringue on slate. Zesty and a touch of tenderness ala Milton the Monster. A treat.
