Wine Colour
Upon release the wine is a very pale colour with subtle green highlights to the edges.
Wine Bouquet
The wine has restrained floral aromas of orange blossom and rose petal combined with strong regional and varietal aromas of lime zest.
Wine Palate
On release, the wine has a fresh lemon-lime flavoured palate with a crisp acid backbone. The finish has a subtle, pleasing mineral character.
Cellaring Notes
This wine has been crafted to be both enjoyed while young and fresh but will reward careful cellaring under ideal conditions up to and possibly beyond 2014.

Riesling and Gewurztraminer
Juicy and chewy with plenty of sweet lime flavour, a smoky nuance and a good dose of more exotic tropical fruit too. The palate's all built on assertive acidity and a good core of tropical/citrus flavour. Smooth finish.

The Riesling Testing
The nose is rich & lush with ripe red apples and honeysuckle tones. Just a hint of toast on a grippy and very dry palate.

Harvey Steiman, Wine Spectator, February 2011
This lean, taut white is distinctive for the mineral and popcorn overtones to its pear and floral flavours, lingering easily on the tart, dry finish. Drink now through 2015.

New releases from Australia
Greenish straw. Precise, mineral-accented nose displays quince, lime zest and ginger, along with a touch of herbs. Juicy and tactile, offering taut citrus and under ripe pear flavours and showing a slight dry edge. Tight, lingering riesling with good clarity and cut.
