Accolades

90 points – John Schreiner (May 2012)
“This bone-dry Riesling, very good now, will age over the next decade to great elegance. It begins with lime and green apple aromas which also are expressed in the flavours of lemon, lime and minerals. The bright acidity makes the wine savoury and mouth-watering, with a tangy finish.”

90 points – Tim Pawsey (June 2012)
“The Alsace clone yields more floral, less limey notes, suggests Stanley, but it still explodes with a burst of lemon zest on the broad, quite textured palate, though not as puckering, he says, again with great, juicy acid fruit balance. The winemaker suggests to put it down and wait a while for it to develop. “

89 points – Beppi Crosariol (May 2012)
“Deftly chiselled, this light white delivers apple and lime flavours in a fresh, crisp-for-summer package. It is silky at first, then turns tart, with chalky stone on the finish. It would be splendid with light seafood dishes or as a mouth-watering aperitif. “
