Riesling from down under (Clare valley) with a tiny bit of age on it. Why not? The wine is sporting a bright gold color which is not usual in dry Riesling examples I'm used to. The nose is typical with lemon zest and petroly notes, some flowery touches too and a tiny vanilla thing. The palate is fresh, very long and acid driven but as well a bit more muscular, wide and thick than the usual German dry Riesling examples I'm used to. The mid palate is wide and there is almost a tannic thing with a vanilla note that develops over the finish. Lemony notes complement that vanilla tune and make up for a long, joyful and structured wine. Good stuff and more complex than what I expected. Thumbs up 2 hands 😆
