2013 Rieslingfreak 'No.8 Schatzkammer Riesling from the Polish Hill River district in the Clare Valley, South Australia...a Schatzkammer of flavour intensity indeed, bursting with juicy limes, powdery, river pebble like texture adding grip across the palate. 20g residual perfectly balanced by its acidity. Germany salutes!

Very light straw with green tinge . Quite light on the nose with floral hints, green apple , lime. On the palate those lemon and lime hints , touch of spicy green herbs . Lovely bracing acidity and a gentle sweetness that is perfectly balanced, nice intensity on the palate . Good lemon and lime tinged finish . Young but promising, a sort of Australian Kabinett or Spatlese , very German in style . Successful . Drink now and over the next 15 years
