This is a belter and up there with the best Mesh releases. Shy aromas of flowers, lemongrass, citrus peel and talc – but the palate is insanely vigorous, ballistically refreshing, tense to the point of rigidity but then offers a flow of crisp, steely acidity that takes delicate citrussy flavours long. It’s no doubt a purist’s Eden Valley riesling, showcasing the inward concentration of fruit and clean lines you can get from the variety, but a pinch of chalky phenolics lends textural complexity for more interest and the wine finishes stony-dry and fresh. Impact is brilliant, flavours dart across the palate and vitality is high.
