The fine structure is testament to the care taken during this wines production.

A notably elegant wine exhibiting white floras, apricot pith and lemon zest. The acidity is juicy rather than hard, a palpably energetic bead, yet never obtuse, serving to draw up the saliva and make one hanker for the next glass and a South-East Asian inspired salad. A beautiful, balletic riesling.
