Under WrapsGreat Southern Riesling 2011
Dry, Light Bodied style of Riesling
About this product
Dry, Light Bodied style of RieslingThis is truly one of Australia's great Rieslings, and not surprising with the myriad of brilliant examples coming out of the Great Southern region in Western Australia. This example has pristine aromas of crisp green apple and citrus flowers and a delicate intensely flavoured palate it is a pleasure to drink now or with bottle age.

Now THIS is the wine that may well be the wine that makes you the otast of the party this coming summer. Cumquat marmalade, like a high level aristocratic German, or a Pichler from Austria. Genuine spice in here, with a nettle undercurrant of detailed complexity. We don't know quite what to say, or we'd write an entire essay. A must-try before you die.

Light to medium yellow colour, the bouquet slightly egg-sulfidey, the palate bright and restrained, exuberanty fruity, lemon, lime and mandarin. Intense and full, softer, rounded and less delicate than some vintages. Beautiful wine. Blossomy.
