Pewsey Vale VineyardThe Contours Riesling
About this product
Pale straw in colour with green hues. Intense classic lemon fruit aromas with a hint of white flowers. bottle aged characters of toast, clove oil and lemongrass have started to emerge and combine with the fresh citrus and white flowers of its youth. The palate has great length and depth with concentrated power, pristine fresh lime juice overlaid with toasted brioche, sage oil and lime marmalade. The wine finishes with soft, refreshing natural acidity. Released in 2022 after 6 years of bottle age, this wine will continue to age gracefully for many years.

Still pale straw-green; five years young, and just starting to build the "lime marmalade on buttered toast" flavours of full maturity that will come another five, perhaps 10, years down the track.

Out of childhood and into adolescence with confidence built on the balance the wine has achieved. The aromas and flavours are all citrus-related, acidity neatly aligned with its allies.
