Ray Jordan’s review
One of the great joys in wine is drinking mature rieslings, and this one is excellent, really only just beginning its journey. It still has some primary fruit, but it’s starting to develop those slightly toasty lime characters that become so appealing with mature rieslings. It retains good primary fruit characters on the palate, and the fine, persistent acidity will ensure it continues to evolve over the next few years. An excellent example of an older riesling, with plenty of life still in the tank.
