A museum release at seven years young, this Pewsey Vale 2017 is a most respectable example of an aged Riesling.
Detailed and delicate, this has tipped over the aging phase with notes of mandarin peel, lemon curd and rosemary sprigs making the first impression. Oily with some honeyed tones, concentrated lime cordial with a preserved lemon finish work their way forward with time in the glass. This is a great wine in its own right but not as good as a few vintages that have come before. Still, given the age and the price point, it is a wine with a silky finish and it is a most respectable example of an aged Riesling with all the hard Yakka done for you.
Drink now to ten years.
