Pale colour. Fresh violet, verbena, herb garden, brown lime aromas. Well-concentrated sapid palate with verbena, lime, lemon curd, pear drop flavours, fine crunchy acidity and al-dente chalky mid-palate textures. Finishes chalky and minerally with al-dente notes. A very expressive textural wine with beautiful tension, clarity, and vinosity. Now-2025

Highly expressive release. It sure is up and about. Cool, pristine aromas of lime and lime blossom with travels of talc asserting through the finish. Steely, almost gravelly character to the aftertaste. Brilliantly dry. There’s an element to this of sucking on stones and quartz, if that makes sense. In short, it’s a gorgeous young riesling. It will age but it’s a perfect candidate for riesling drinking this coming summer.
