As Kenny Rogers once said, "You've got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em." So with this Riesling, do you hold or drink now? You'll be rewarded either way that's for sure. A ripping Riesling from the Clare Valley sub-region of Watervale.
This parcel was kept separate for its ability to age. Held for two years in bottle, it's starting to show some aging development to give you an insight into where it is headed. Wade through generous splashes of lemons and preserved lemons. Silky feels through the mouth heighten the excitement factor as does the attractive weight - it just feels good. The acid has been handled with class and frames the palate well. Impressive length at this early stage of its journey, it's the type of wine I'd like to re-visit every couple of years. Long-term aging beyond a decade is well within reach. A stunning Riesling.
