Typical of a new world Riesling, this wine is pale gold with a profound and clean nose. The kerosene aroma, usually noticeable in older Rieslings from the classic regions, is the dominant smell here with citrus fruit notes showing through underneath. The wine is off dry with crisp acidity, powerful mouthfeel and a good concentration of lemony fruit. It is medium-bodied and has a good length of finish.
A well made Riesling from the new world. Drinking well now and possibly for a few more years.
