SeppeltDrumborg Vineyard Riesling 2009
Dry, Light Bodied style of Riesling
About this product
Dry, Light Bodied style of RieslingDrumborg Vineyard has become one of Australia's premier vineyards for producing Riesling, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris and Chardonnay. Always in very limited supply, the Drumborg Riesling is a delicate white with pronounced floral notes and notes of citrus zest on the nose. The palate follows through with delicate lime flavours and a trademark zippy mineral acid backbone. Wonderfully fresh and vibrant early in its life, the Drumborg Riesling is also famous for ageing exceptionally well and will further develop in the bottle for a further decade or more.

The track record of this wine leaves no doubt it will develop slowly but superbly; it is perfectly balanced and has extreme length, with lime and apple flavours building to a crescendo on the finish.

The 2009 Seppelt Drumborg Riesling has delicate, pure, floral, apple and pear aromas with a little peach and honeysuckle. Very crisp, dry and light bodied, it provides just enough flavor to fill the mouth and a long steely finish.
