2013 Riesling Bannockburn

DOWNLOAD TASTING NOTE

Inviting aromas of citrus, spice and mineral. A diverse range of sweet tropical fruits dominate the mid-palate which is engaging and comforting. The initial burst of sweetness is quickly and seamlessly integrated by the racy acidity provided by our unique climate. This contributes to the wine's considerable length and intrigue with the residual sugar (56 g/L) being hardly noticeable amongst the delicate framework (9.5% alc).

Decanter Magazine, April 2014

Trademark apricot notes but a sweeter style. The persistent fruit gives a finish as long as Felton Road's dry version, but broader - like a glass of apricot patisserie. 17.5/20pts (91/100pts)

Gourmet Traveller, June/July 2014

Reasonably concentrated and moderately sweet riesling with fine, juicy acidity adding exquisite tension and energy. In addition to the chalky mineral character is has line and rose petal/orange blossom flavours. 95 Points *****
